Stuttering in preschool and young
school-age children can be one of the more challenging disorders for
speech-language pathologists to treat. Many clinicians are uncertain about
which children need treatment and about what therapy techniques help
children overcome their difficulties with fluency. This webinar will address
those concerns by providing specific examples of assessment strategies,
treatment goals, and therapy activities that can be immediately used in
treatment. Particular attention
will be paid to strategies for working with parents and to methods for helping
children develop healthy, appropriate attitudes toward their communication
skills.
