My experience is, if your stutter/block is situational, the more you try to be fluent, the more pressure it builds up resulting in more blocks. So I try to 'let' myself stutter or block to get the pressure off of me. Once I started doing this, I realized nobody gives a shit about my mild stutter, it was mostly all in my head. This would obviously not apply if you're a severe stutterer.
