We cannot say enough wonderful things about Melody. She began working with our son, Joey, when he was six years old, and the progress we’ve seen has been nothing short of incredible. From the beginning, Melody recognized that communication starts with regulation. Her calm, patient, and compassionate approach has helped Joey become more regulated in his body while building the motor skills needed for spelling. She has always believed in his potential, even before he was able to show us what he knew. Through Spelling to Communicate, Melody has opened a door that we never knew was possible. Watching Joey spell and express his thoughts has been one of the most life-changing experiences for our family! She has not only helped him find his voice but has also given us the priceless gift of seeing the intelligence, personality, and understanding that were there all along. We are forever grateful for the impact she has had on Joey and our entire family. If you are considering working with Melody, I wholeheartedly recommend her. She has truly changed our lives, and we will always be thankful for everything she has done!
