Excellent Coaching
Spellers Center Atlanta was started by Dana Johnson, cofounder of Spellers Method. Ignited by the drive to support spellers and their families in their spelling and intentional motor journey, the team at SCA prioritizes coaching to teach and improve upon your child's motor skills. Specifically, we support motor planning development in the areas of activities of daily living such as feeding, dressing, and toileting; hobbies and recreational activiites; and academics or school related tasks.

Lisa Bergquist
Clinic Director Spellers Method Provider, E-RYT 500 Lisa is a trained Spellers Method Provider and a certified yoga instructor through the Yoga Alliance. She also received her B.A. in Biology. After teaching yoga for almost 20 years, she was introduced to the world of spelling. Like yoga, spelling is based upon bringing the mind and body together. With a focus on refining gross motor skills, Lisa teaches people with sensory/motor differences to use spelling to communicate their thoughts and ideas. By using purposeful motor movement, clients work to develop the necessary strength and skills to communicate clearly and accurately. With patience and fortitude, there is so much spellers can accomplish!
