The present text tries to establish a hypothesis that categorizes stuttering, not only as a disorder of communication, but also, as a biopsychosocial phenomenon of a traumatic nature. Surpassing, therefore, a biomedical vision of dysphoria and transcending the nosological entity of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), will be conceptualized as a conflict between parties and, in particular, blocking, such as a flashback or reexperiencing of the traumatic experience as somatic and implicit memory. The neuropsychology of stuttering and the theory of structural dissociation will serve as tools to shape this hypothesis that attributes to dysphemia a psychopathological core of post-traumatic and dissociative nature. Finally, lines of intervention will be suggested from an integrative perspective, to carry out a psychotherapeutic treatment that focuses on the recognition and communication between parties and the ultimate goal of integration, above verbal fluency.
