If she's telling you to do it to avoid a block, that's the wrong intention before voluntary stuttering. Voluntary stuttering is primarily used to take on the role of the person who stutters even you don't have to. As a hedge against getting feelings of not wanting to stutter after periods of extended fluency. If she's telling you to use it as a fluency technique, it's another trick to avoid stuttering which is counterproductive to acceptance.
