Description
Stuttering is a very complex speech disorder that can affect normal communication and is impacted by emotional and physiological variables. Although fluency is the main focus of traditional speech therapy, research is beginning to emphasize the importance of emotional control in determining the severity of stuttering and the effectiveness of treatment. Interventions that are more comprehensive and successful may result from an understanding of this link. This poster presentation summarizes recent literature related to how emotional control affects children’s stuttering severity and the efficacy of therapy. Incorporating emotional regulation techniques may improve treatment results since elevated emotional reactions can intensify speech disfluencies. The interaction between conventional speech treatment methods and emotion management techniques, such as mindfulness exercises and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The literature supports how crucial it is to include emotional regulation in children's stuttering treatment and using a holistic strategy to incorporate stuttering treatment, emotional management, and fluency shaping. Keywords: Stuttering, emotional regulation, speech therapy, neurophysiology, fluency shaping, stuttering modification, cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, communication confidence, therapy outcomes.
