Stuttering and Stigma With SLP Derek Daniels

SLP Derek Daniels says stigmatizing actions, like imitating stuttering, can lead people who stutter to remove themselves from opportunities and create a diminished quality of life. Daniels unpacks an example from his own life to give a glimpse into three different ways people can experience stigma. He shares how SLPs can address stigma in their work, and later in the episode, discusses his research into the intersectional ways people experience stigma.(This conversation was originally published in May 2024.)Learn More:Toward Stutter-Affirming TherapyRaising Stuttering Awareness and Reducing Stigma: A CollectionASHA Practice Portal: Stuttering, Cluttering, and FluencyASHA Special Interest Group 4: Fluency and Fluency DisordersASHA Condemns Public Mockery of StutteringTranscript
