Talking On The Phone

Talking On The Phone After frequently visiting this subreddit for a few months now, I’ve finally gotten the courage to make an appointment with a speech therapist! However, I’ve never made a doctor’s appointment myself (college freshman here) so I have no idea what to say. Not really sure if this is the place to ask for advice on making an appointment and how to navigate awkward pauses where my speech isn’t as fluent as I would but any advice is appreciated!!
