These Targeting Adult Stammering cards have been developed from clinical work with groups of adults who stammer and refined by an established author with over 40 years of experience working with children and adults. Each card contains a word related to an aspect that a client will be working on in a therapy process, for example general communication skills such as body language and facial expression; modification of speech such as light contacts and block modification; and psychological or cognitive processes such as positive thinking and mindfulness. Cards can be used in individual sessions or in group sessions, where members can be encouraged to take an active role in providing feedback. These cards: • Provide specific, relevant and immediate visual feedback in a way that does not disrupt the speech or thought processes of the speaker • Promote a collaborative therapeutic partnership amongst those in the clinical context, developing client autonomy and dismantling the unhelpful hierarchical therapist/client relationship. • Can be used alongside several current approaches to stammering such as stammer modification, ‘stammer more proudly’ and solution focused brief therapy Containing three sets of 27 cards and five blank cards for individualised targets, this is an essential tool for either group or individual work with adults and teenagers who stammer. The section on general communication can also be used with other clients, such as those with Parkinson’s disease.

With new chapters and therapy ideas, this is an extremely useful resource for all speech & language therapists and students working with adults who stammer.

This volume forms a catalogue of treatment options from which clinicians may choose to use all of the techniques or pick out particular sections according to their clients' special requirements. The first edition of this book proved to be a very useful tool for speech and language professionals, and this new edition has come about largely because clinicians, speech and language therapists and teachers have requested it. With the inclusion of 50 photocopiable handouts and the presentation of the chapters in the order they would use with their own group programmes, the authors set out the principles of therapy in such a way that the treatment techniques fit into a clear management approach. Trudy Stewart is a specialist in dysfluency and has been a service manager since 1986. She studied in America and obtained her PhD in 1991. Jackie Turnbull retired from SLT in July 2009 after 40 years in the profession, over 35 of which were spent as a specialist in dysfluency, working with children and adults. She also worked for many years as a staff counsellor in a large hospital. The collaboration that has grown up between the two of them has sparked further study in stammering. Together they have developed a highly creative clinical practice which has national recognition.
