Hey, so I am a stutterer myself. My advice to you is to find a good speech therapist, preferably someone who is specialised in stuttering. I have been to a couple therapist myself and I can say from experience that the one who only focused on stuttering was the one who helped me the most. She didn't help me with any tips or tricks to hide my stutter but taught me by cognitive therapy to accept my stutter and the way I speak. It's a long and hard road but you'll get there. Never let your stutter stop you from going after your dreams. I study criminology now. Before that I studied special education. It's not easy because I have to talk a lot but I love it and that is what keeps motivating me. Sorry for any mistakes. English is not my mothertongue Tldr: find a speech therapist who is specialised in stuttering
