“…Several SLPs have recognized that the significance of the "therapist factors" is underestimated. Perhaps the first was Albert Murphy [57], a psychologist who had been trained in stuttering therapy by the Iowa pioneers Lee Travis, Wendell Johnson and Charles van Riper, and who stayed in close contact with the pioneers of Humanistic Psychology, Kurt Goldstein, Carl Rogers, Gordon Allport and Abraham Maslow. Murphy wrote 37 years ago:…”

“…Therapeutic alliance is an emerging quality of partnership and mutual collaboration between therapist and client built on a positive emotional bond (trust, respect, liking) and especially to respond non-defensively to a client's hostility or negativity [67]. Empathy-based therapy cannot work with "technical dialogue" (where the purpose is frequently to persuade others to adopt a particular point of view), nor with "monologue disguised as dialogue" but only in "genuine dialogue", where clinicians and client are open to the otherness of their co-participants [57]. The therapist should allow himself to be vulnerable to accepting his own feelings, including his fears.…”

In the search for the causes of developmental stuttering the findings have constantly proved contradictory. Despite the huge body of knowledge about stuttering its cause is still considered to be unknown; the psychological background is recognized as important, but stuttering is currently regarded as a pure neurological problem. It is generally agreed that therapy should be multidimensional but in fact there is a widespread opinion that the dysfunction has genetic roots. This surprising lack of agreement is blocking the advance of research and the development of therapeutic approaches. In addition, there are serious shortcomings in the currently favored methodology of stuttering research: evidence-based medicine and practice have reduced the amount of high-grade evidence research data to such an extent that much useful information has been lost; the relevance of functional magnetic resonance imaging is controversial, and the hope that one day genetic engineering will correct stuttering-related mutations without severe side effects is unrealistic. A change of approach to research and therapy is required. If this cannot be found on the basis of a generally accepted notion of the cause of stuttering, it must emerge from the search for the best existing therapeutic approach. Conclusion: The present paper offers an evaluation of the basic finding of modern outcome research that the factor of a specific therapeutic approach has less impact on outcome than the common factors, especially the clinician-client relationship. In Speech Language Pathology, and notably in stuttering research and clinical practice, it would be wise to implement this understanding in the form of empathy-based therapies. The requirements for developing the skills for this approach are discussed.

Thirteen Australian parents of stuttering children participated in a parent education program based on Thomas Gordon's Parent Effectiveness Training program. Tape recordings of parent-child conversations were made before and after the parent participated in the parent education program. The conversations were analyzed in terms of the amount of verbalization of the stuttering child with each parent and the level of fluency of a stuttering child with each parent. An analysis of the results showed the stuttering children to significantly (p <.0473) increase the number of words used when talking with their mother and significantly (p <.0218) decrease their percentage of stuttering when speaking with their father.
