Assessment with School Aged Children Children Who Stutter Sharon Millard, Ph.D. from MPC


There are a number of assessments available to therapists for use when working with school-aged children who stutter. In this session, we consider the factors a clinician might take into account when selecting the most appropriate assessments, as well as some examples of available tools.


First, Do No Harm: When We Want to Help Ryan Pollard, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, BCS-F


Stuttering therapy has a history of sometimes doing more harm to clients than good. The reasons for this are varied and complex, but often boil down to leaving persons who stutter with the impression—or even the conviction— that it’s not okay to stutter, and use of specific management skills is the central metric of success. In this session, we discuss how SLPs can avoid causing unintended harm, and instead, help clients uncover their own solutions by guiding them through a process of learning and self-discovery


Working on the Family Level David Luterman, Ed.D., CCC-SLP


The family is a system in which all the parts are interconnected and therefore we are dealing with a family in which everyone is grappling with stuttering. This workshop will focus on the components of the family system and describe what would make a family successful in supporting the individual who stutters. The optimal and successful family will be delineated. A discussion of resilience and its importance to a successful outcome will be presented.


Shifting Perspectives Within School-Based Stuttering Treatment Timothy Flynn M.S., CCC-SLP


This presentation will discuss the shifting perspective of working with children who stutter. How do we define “impact?” How do we define “success?” Rationales for changing perspectives will be provided, examples of clinical applications, accommodations, and specific challenges that SLPs will face within the school system.
