Heart Of Texas Spelling 2 Communicate Academy
Heart Of Texas Spelling 2 Communicate Academy was opened in April of 2022.
Our goal is to work with non-speaking individuals of all ages to help them learn the
gross motor skills to communicate through letter boards and eventually working on keyboards. We work alongside non-speaking clients to become their communication partners and eventually will coach their family to transition into this partnership.
We work with many sensory-motor differences including: autism, apraxia, sensory processing disorder, brain injuries that have affected speech, etc.
Michelle Basden
Owner &
Practitioner In Training
Hi! My name is Michelle Basden. I am currently 1 of 4 Practitioners in Training in Texas under the Spelling To Communicate (S2C) program developed by Elizabeth Vossler. I learned about the S2C program after reading. “How to End the Autism Epidemic” and “Underestimated” by JB & Jamison Handley. I highly recommend these books. At the end of the book, Jamison emphasized the need for more S2C practitioners. I decided to look into the S2C program and who was doing this is Texas. To my surprise at the time, no one! So I decided to take the leap and learn this new amazing therapy. I completed my training program in October of 2022.
