About Okanagan Spellers

Welcome!

I'm a certified Spelling to Communicate (S2C) Practitioner with over 15 years of experience supporting people with autism and individuals with diverse communication needs. My background includes working as a behaviour interventionist and education assistant, giving me a deep understanding of regulation, motor differences, and individualized support.

At Okanagan Spellers, I work with nonspeaking, minimally speaking, and unreliably speaking individuals to help them develop purposeful communication through Spelling to Communicate (S2C). Every session is tailored to the individual, meeting them where they are while presuming competence and supporting the development of the purposeful motor skills needed for more reliable communication.

I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to express their thoughts, ideas, personality, and knowledge. It is a privilege to partner with families as we celebrate progress, build confidence, and discover what is possible—one letter at a time.

I am an approved Autism Funding service provider and can bill eligible families directly through the Autism Funding Unit. I currently offer in-home and community-based sessions throughout the Okanagan, as well as virtual coaching and support for families who live farther away.

Whether you're just beginning to explore S2C or are looking for ongoing support, I'd love to connect and answer any questions you may have.

Testimonials

Jenn Samyka

"Carly has worked for my son Owen for over 15 years. She is kind, compassionate, caring, and patient. She is now working with Owen on letter boards, and we could not be happier. Letter boarding has been life-changing for our entire family. I can't recommend Carly enough—she really is one of a kind!"

Martina Gyori

"We were absolutely blessed to have Carly as our son's teacher's support for many years during his elementary school.
She has the insight and compassion to help individuals with all kinds of special needs. Carly is truly one of the most dedicated and inspirational educators I've met. Our son Daniel has formed a strong bond with Carly and she became HIS person. I cannot imagine Daniel going through the school without Carly`s support. Not only did she help Danny with school work, but she was his emotional support above all. Because Daniel did not share with us much about his day at school, we appreciated Carly`s excellent communication with us.  We are so grateful that Daniel had built such a great relationship and trust with Carly."
