CAPABLE
COMMUNICATION
CONNECTION
Here at Capable, we are committed to empowering nonspeaking, minimally speaking, and unreliably speaking individuals through Spelling to Communicate (S2C). Our dedicated and skilled practitioners support clients with diverse motor and sensory profiles, always meeting them where they are. We believe that motor control and communication is the foundation for autonomy, independence, and true inclusion. At the heart of our work is a deep belief in the inherent dignity, intelligence, and potential of every person—and the unwavering conviction that they are CAPABLE.

Pamela H. - Parent
"Jessie has been working with my nonspeaking son, Jack, for over 2 years now and she is a gem, as a practitioner and as a person. Jessie has supported Jack in strengthening his purposeful motor skills on the letterboard and keyboard, as well as helping him stay regulated throughout their sessions. Jessie is dedicated to her clients and Jack cherishes his time with her."
Tom P. - Speller
"They helped me go from autistic to auTASTIC! Jessie is so full of heart, tenacity, love , fearlessness, adventure, goofiness and a brilliance all her own. She has been a true gift in lives of our family since we met several summers ago and she started working with my son Ben/for us. Today, she not only helps Ben - but also other young people with nonspeaking autism - express their voice/self to the world at large."
Mark V. - Parent
"As the parent of a non-verbal autistic child with Down Syndrome, I fell into the trap of assuming that because communication was mostly one-way, there was also low intelligence. This false belief meant that I didn't engage in an age-appropriate manner. After seeing my son’s progress with Courtney, and being taught to presume competence, everything has shifted. Where once I saw a severely disabled child with little hope for a bright future, I now see an intelligent teenager with an acute awareness of his surroundings, and one who clearly has age-apprpriate thoughts and feelings. I'm excited to be able to communicate more fully with him and it provides hope where once there was fear and doubt."
