If you’re a mom or caregiver supporting a non-speaker who communicates through spelling, you know how challenging and emotional this journey can be. I’ve worked closely with many families walking this same path, and I’ve seen firsthand both the beautiful breakthroughs and the frustrating roadblocks.
That’s exactly why I created something to help lighten that load and open up space for smoother, calmer communication sessions—the Spellers Toolkit.
Understanding the Challenges
Walking into a communication session isn’t just about sitting down with a letter board—it’s often filled with emotions from past attempts, fears of getting stuck again, or the pressure of wanting your child to succeed.
As parents, we want so deeply to help our children share their voices, but when tension or old frustrations bubble up, it can block both you and your child from connecting the way you want to.
The Birth of the Speller Toolkit
The idea for this toolkit came to me during a powerful session with a mom and her non-speaker child. I watched how just a few simple shifts in energy completely changed their sessions—they became calmer, more connected, and much more productive.
That’s when I realized: I could package these tools into something families could use anytime, on their own.
The Spellers Toolkit grew from that inspiration. It includes separate audio guides—one just for the communication partner (you!) and one for the speller. Each one uses guided imagery and gentle tapping techniques to help both of you release tension, ground your energy, and open up to a smoother flow of communication.
What’s Inside the Toolkit?
Here’s what you’ll receive when you access the toolkit:
- Two 30-minute audio sessions: one designed specifically for you, and one for your speller.
- A quick, guided session to help you clear the energy of the letter board and reset before starting.
These sessions walk you through calming your mind, releasing emotional baggage, and stepping into a place of openness and encouragement. It’s like giving your session a fresh, clean slate every time you sit down together.
Techniques to Transform Your Spelling Sessions
Through imagery and tapping, these audios guide you to gently release old stuck energy—whether it’s frustration, discouragement, or fear of “messing up.”
Imagine letting go of the picture of a struggling to find the right letters, and instead, holding a new image where the letters are right there—easy to reach, ready to spell out whatever needs to be said. This shift can change not just the session itself, but also how you and your child feel about communication moving forward.

Real Testimonials: Voices of Validation
Hearing from families who’ve used the toolkit has been such a gift.
I love that there are separate audios for the CRP and the Speller.
When listening to the CRP clearing, I felt at ease and guided and supported.
For the speller: this one was super cool. It’s not often someone talks directly to our spellers, I love how you talk to them directly and aid them.
It was powerful! I could feel the tension leave his body in a few of the releases, and which words he needed me to hear from you.
Your images are truly inspired.
After listening to both we did a spelling session at home and it went unusually smooth!
It’s not often my mind can be so neutral during spelling, but it was, and it was a nice break for both of us to not have that as a distraction. I’ve been practicing with my speller for years- and even though I’ve been told many times to remain calm, it hasn’t been enough.
I feel this is the missing piece for me- I didn’t know how to clear or separate these complicated intertwining pieces. I believe practicing this will greatly aid us on our spelling journey.

I wanted to report that we did THE BEST EVER spelling session!!!!!!!!!
I only did the clearing on me so far, will do the clearing for Sammy later today or tomorrow but it really was powerful!
When I tapped in the part that said “They don’t need “help”. They can spell to communicate, they can do it. Their body just needs assistance. I can be of assistance!”
I felt a powerful rush of energy…almost like a boom…I felt that that was the most important part for Sammy…and it was something I did not consider before….
these are his lessons, he is the speller, I’m not teaching him anything, I’m just assisting.
That paired with being an empty boat made the lessons go WAY WAY WAY BETTER!!!!
Because I was calmer and there to support and assist it actually felt like more fun for me too…like the pressure was off to do this “chore” to help him.
Thank you so much for this tool!
+ Btw, we did another spelling lesson today and I was blown away AGAIN!
Just in one day the amount of progress he has made, has left my jaw on the floor.
I would say there has been a 40% improvement overall on the spelling. I had to work really hard to stay calm and not get too excited, because even that can be dysregulating for Sammy.
He crushed it again today!

I absolutely love the toolkit so far!
The affirmations for the CP were so amazing and addressed literally every worry and wonder about the whole spelling process!!
You hit every nail on the head!
With the spellers one, we listened to it in the car on the way home from school yesterday.
Yesterday was also the first day we started to slowly transition into the 26 letterboard.
The session went great and he did wonderful for his first time using the big board!
I personally definitely felt more grounded and relaxed.
I was sitting in a feeling of “we got this, no problem!”.
He flew through the sessions (we do multiple a day) and I was so proud of him!
