Dr. Cara Singer, Assistant Professor at Grand Valley State University in Michigan, joins host, Sara MacIntyre, M.A., CCC-SLP, to discuss a recent case study published in Perspectives: 'Treating a Young Child Who Stutters' Lateral Lisp: A Case Study' with her co-collaborator and student, Ellianne Martin. Cara shares her motivation for further exploring speech sound impairments in young children who stutter, overviews the literature thus far within the areas of both motor-based and phonological-based speech sound impairments with children who stutter, and proceeds to walk us through the case background, treatment protocol, and rationales. Cara discusses decision-making considerations when working with children who stutter who have motor-based speech sound impairments, as well as special considerations within therapy to facilitate positive communication attitudes and confidence.
