Excellent article! I agree that SLP’s need to take a seriously look into the emotional side of stuttering. Good communication involves a lot more than the fluency of his/her speech. It is so true that people who stutter are suffering from the emotional aspects of their stuttering. Your article did an eloquent job of identifying and explaining the emotional aspects that often coincide with a person who stutters. I whole-heartedly agree with in your rationale for treating the emotional aspects. Your article taught me a lot!
