[eng] In this episode, you will listen to Dario Strangis, an Italian speech therapist, Certified European Stuttering Specialist, and a person who both stutters and clutters. He presents an article he co-authored with Yvonne Van Zaalen, focusing on a young adolescent who clutters. Dario discusses the importance of taking into account the awareness and concerns of adolescents who clutter, and of monitoring them during pre-adolescence and adolescence to help prevent the development of negative attitudes toward speaking and their impact on daily life. He also explores the interaction between different types of disfluencies in the speech of people who clutter.
