Check out the link archive and top-rated posts here. There are 2 approaches that helped me: 1. Fluency Shaping, aka most speech therapy. This helped a lot, especially with reading. Do the speaking exercises even though they might seem stupid or embarrassing, to build up muscle memory for speaking like you want to. (And you should do it for you, not for other people.) This got me probably 75% of the way to "overcoming" stuttering but I still stuttered noticeably and it bothered me mentally. 2. Self-acceptance work (overcome fear of rejection/judgment). This picked up where speech therapy left off. In retrospect I was terrified of saying the "wrong" thing and getting over this so I didn't "scan ahead" or panic when I thought I might stutter helped a lot. Be an adult: you get to decide for yourself what is right for you. This got me to probably 95% of "overcoming" stuttering but I'm working on that last 5%. I can do phone interviews, present at work, etc. and stuttering might be noticeable sometimes but isn't too distracting and doesn't slow down what I want to say. So, it's possible to make some big improvements.
