I used to see a Speech Therapist when I was in grade school. I still don't know how the district managed it since we were perpetually on the edge of bankruptcy, but even with three 's' sounds in her name, she helped me overcome a stutter.
I've never quite overcome mine, but then, my stutter is mostly related to the fact that I have Tourette's Syndrome. It's a neuro-muscular thing, not so much a classic impediment. Still, it's lessened over the years, and I've taken a few speech classes here and there to deal with it. But there are times I can't even say my own name when introducing myself.
