Question for a Professional — 1 Comment

  1. Hello Jessica, Emily, and Lele,

    HI! Congratulations on your graduate education and being almost done! Next stop, a job!!! So exciting!

    What a great question. Being someone who has published article and presented about Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness, I lean in that direction for my counseling approach. However, since being a podcast host for the free podcast, Act To Live Podcast, we have explored all kinds of psychological theories to apply to every life, but that could be applied to working with people who stutter.

    If you email me, I can send you articles written in the past several years that might help you learn a lot more about ACT, Mindfulness, and other counseling skills.

    In the past three years I have been working with Dr. Derek Daniels and Dr. James Panico, focusing on the use and importance of Active/Mindful Listening skills. The more you can practice listening skills with anyone we converse with, the more effective we will listen to our clients and families.

    Again, if you email me I can send you some information.

    My email: spalasik@uakron.edu

    The above are just a few of MANY options for counseling. There is CBT, REBT, and so much more!!!
    Keep asking questions!
    With compassion and kindness,
    Scott
