title: Current issues in the treatment of stammering.
abstract: During the past 20 years there have been an increasing number of different forms of therapy available to the clinician to use with patients who stammer. There has been considerable controversy about the best ways of treating patients who stammer. At times this has made it difficult for the clinician to choose the most appropriate form for an individual patient. This paper aims to describe some of the current issues involved in the treatment of stammering.
