Anyone know an awesome mental health provider who specializes in treating adolescents who stutter? I'm an SLP and I have a teenage client who stutters. I won't go into too much detail, but their mental health is the main priority right now and it's beyond my scope. I know plenty of great metal health providers to refer him to, but I worry that a provider without experience in this area may be dismissive of his feelings toward his stutter. To people who don't stutter, I can see them thinking his stutter is *"not that bad"*, but to him it's life shattering. Location doesn't matter as his family is willing to do telehealth/private pay.
