Statewide SLP Webinar 6- Stutter-affirming therapy for older school-age children and teens: A modern, comprehensive approach - 37087
As the field of stuttering therapy evolves, many clinicians are left wondering how to balance messages of stuttering acceptance with skills that help students communicate more easily and effectively in school and beyond. The purpose of this presentation is to demystify the current terminology and views related to stuttering therapy (stuttering-affirming, neurodiversity, verbal diversity) and discuss ways to help students, caregivers, and educators better understand the true nature of stuttering. This foundation will provide clinicians with concrete guidance on selecting appropriate goals and procedures for comprehensive stuttering therapy in the modern era.
