I would go to speech therapy and have this be a central focus. Unless you have tourettes, this is a learned involuntary behavior and have become automatic. But it can be slowly unlearned or rather, replaced with a different behavior. In general though, I wouldn't try to force or push words out if that's what's causing the tension.
