I'm pretty sure my stutter is psychogenic and I tried speech therapy in my early twenties. I found it helps a little for a few days then seemed to get worse. The biggest benefit to my own stutter is acceptance, generally anxiety reduction mixed with a bit of exposure therapy. I think psychogenic stutters would get very different results form therapy depending on what the initial cause was.
