A book club for speech-language pathologists on facilitating change for people who stutter.
In this series of guided discussions, participants will learn the overt and covert side effects of stuttering, the cycle of struggle perpetuated by avoidance and maladaptive responses to stuttering, the state of hypervigilance about stuttering and its destructive toll on a person who stutters, and the role SLPs can play in marginalizing the side effects of stuttering and its impact. Participants will analyze the process of change that enables a person who stutters to let go of the physiological, emotional, and mental effort put into stuttering as well as avoidance and identity concealment in order to find self-acceptance, life-fulfillment, and freedom, ease, and joy in communication.
