    Area of Science:

    • Psychology

    • Individuals who stutter may develop a self-system that reinforces their speech patterns.
    • Limited functioning can arise from a lack of alternative behavioral frameworks.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To apply Gestalt therapy concepts to the treatment of stuttering.
    • To reframe stuttering as an organized self-system.
    • To explore how Gestalt therapy can unlock limited functioning in individuals who stutter.

    Main Methods:

    • Application of Gestalt therapy principles.
    • Analysis of the self-system maintenance in stuttering.
    • Exploration of Gestalt therapeutic interventions.

    Main Results:

    • Stuttering is conceptualized as a self-system, not merely a symptom.

    • Gestalt therapy offers a framework for altering limited functioning patterns.

    Conclusions:

    • Gestalt therapy provides a novel perspective on stuttering treatment.
    • Understanding stuttering as a self-system is key to intervention.
    • This therapeutic framework can facilitate broader changes in functioning for individuals who stutter.
