For me it was exposure therapy. First my SLP had me call different stores like Nike and say “Hi my name is ___ and I stutter, do you have [this] shoe in a size 12?” Once I Got confident in that, I went to the public park and did the same thing to random people and had to interview them about stuttering. This opened my eyes to see that most people really don’t care, and allowed me to own who I was and helped alleviate anxiety, which could inhibit more stuttering
