Sherri Miller, MS, CCC-SLP, is a certified and licensed speech-language pathologist who began her work with individuals on the autism spectrum in private, school, birth-to-three, and medical settings after she obtained her Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Washington (with distinction in speech and hearing sciences & cum laude) in 1994 and Master of Science degree from the University of Arizona in 1996.  When she and her husband, Jeff, were blessed with a child on the spectrum, she gathered various treatment skills including but not limited to neurofeedback and certification in Relationship Development Intervention® and the Lee Silverman Voice Therapy® Program. She holds a certificate in the MyoMethod® to assess and treat orofacial myofunctional disorders and has taken extensive training in stuttering and fluency disorders, including atypical fluency. As a homeschooling veteran of over 16 years, she offers a unique perspective of how to support parents who wish to play a central role in guiding their child's development. Sherri is continuously learning and sharing new research and has earned ASHA ACE (70 hours) awards in 2020, 2022, & 2024 for continuing education.

Marissa Churchill, MOT, OTR/L is an occupational therapist who has a passion for working with children of all ages, alongside their families, in order to support their development in the areas of motor and sensory processing development. Marissa graduated from Whitworth University in 2006 with a BA in psychology and Eastern Washington University in 2009 with a master's in occupational therapy. Since then, she has worked with children and adolescents in outpatient, early intervention, and school settings.

Marissa’s experience and professional interests include sensory processing differences, autism, social-emotional difficulties, as well as supporting motor development as it relates to one’s participation and enjoyment in daily activities. Along with regular continuing education in the areas listed above, Marissa has received additional training in sensory-based feeding, neurodiversity-affirming therapeutic approaches, and Bowenwork (soft-tissue bodywork technique) in order to support the whole-child and their family.  She was certified in the Safe and Sound Protocol in 2023.

Marissa lives in Edmonds with her husband and three kids. She loves going on walks or bike rides with her family, a good vanilla latte, and exploring the beautiful beaches in the area. 

"Sherri Miller has been an answer to prayers for my son. She is kind, patient, observant, and understanding. She was able to help us verbalize, target, and solve issues that were holding back my son."
