Stuttering is often paradoxical in its signs and symptomology—often removing a sense of agency from not only the speaker, but also the clinicians and caregivers who seek to help. The good news is we know much more about stuttering than many assume. In this one-hour session, Evan Usler, Ph.D., of the University of Delaware, explores the theoretical and clinical value of a simple (but not too simple) explanation of stuttering. The purpose is to empower participants to deduce their own simple, yet evidence-based, explanations targeted to specific audiences, including people who stutter and their families.
