Communication Changes Everything.

I work alongside nonspeaking, minimally speaking, autistic, and neurodivergent individuals with unreliable speech, as well as their families and the professionals who support them. My work focuses on co-regulation and supporting sensory and motor access as pathways to communication, participation, and meaningful connection.

Welcome

If you're here, you're likely walking a path that can be both challenging and beautifully unique. Whether you're just beginning to understand your child’s needs or you’ve been advocating for years, you are not alone. Spellers Connect exists to support neurodivergent individuals and their families in accessing communication, building regulation, and strengthening connections through relationship-centered, neurodiversity-affirming support.

Hi, I’m Sherri.

For over 35 years, I have worked alongside neurodivergent children, adolescents, and adults across school, clinical, and community environments, supporting meaningful participation and inclusion in daily life. My work is grounded in respect, presuming competence, and understanding that regulation, relationship, and motor access are foundational to participation and communication.

My approach reflects evidence-informed practice, relationship-based support, and a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. I strive to create collaborative environments where individuals and families feel supported, respected, and empowered.

I also have the honor of serving on the International Association for Spelling as Communication (I-ASC) Faculty and Leadership Team. As the founder of Spellers Connect, I am pleased to offer in-person and virtual services, as well as virtual group opportunities for individuals, families, and professionals.

Let’s Get Started

Spelling to Communicate® (S2C®) is a motor-based approach that supports individuals who are nonspeaking or minimally speaking in accessing alternative communication pathways. Spellers Connect provides individualized, relationship-based support grounded in co-regulation, purposeful motor engagement, and respect for each person’s autonomy and agency. If you would like to learn more or explore whether Spellers Connect may be a good fit for you or your family, I welcome you to reach out. Funding options may be available. Please enquire for additional information.

Families are the foundation. Co-regulation creates space for connection and empowerment.

“Sherri is a champion and ally for nonspeakers everywhere. We are blessed to have a practitioner of her calibre in our corner”

Isaiah Grewal — Author, NonSpeaker

“Sherri’s sharp discernment and ability to push our son just the right amount have been invaluable. I appreciate her honesty and commitment to providing an accurate assessment rather than just telling us what we want to hear.”

Patti Lowhorn — Parent, True North Connect

“I love when a practitioner jokes with me or talks to me in a way that acknowledges I am a real person with a thinking brain who might even have a sense of humour.”
