I'm a speech language pathology graduate student and have been interested in this issue. I have a client right now that attends private school, was adopted, and seems to think the only relaxation in her life comes during the 30 minutes a week I have her in therapy. Her mother has brought her every time at least 10 minutes late for our sessions and I am honestly stuck. I know the mother cares about her daughter's stuttering and the techniques we are working on because she has told me how much it has helped her. I just don't know how to address the stress issue with the mother and was wondering if anyone knew of any handouts I could give the mother or child. Has anyone ever had these issues before? Thanks for any input!
