Many SLPs have no training in dysfluency, and give advice as if you have something similar to a lisp. At best, this will not help. If you are interested in SLPs who specialize in dysfluency, many who are PWS, who have a track record of *helping us* become comfortable talking, ask. This is the first thing you’ll learn - practice having voluntary repetitions. Look at yourself in mirror (this is hard but important!) and say “H-h-hello, when I talk, sometimes I repeat or p-p-pause” Once you can tolerate this, add to it. Speak on exhales, make eye contact, and enunciate.
