About the Speaker: Ms Shereen Idiculla

As a speech and language therapist, Shereen started with the traditional approaches for language learning in children and realised that there was something missing; what worked for one child did not work for another. A learning journey started where she explored different approaches by learning or getting certified in various techniques. One thing led to another and currently Shereen is a Hanen Certified Speech and Language Therapist for the More Than Words® and It Takes Two To Talk® Programs, a Feeding Therapist as well as a Level 2 Autism Movement Therapist. She has been trained on the Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS), PROMPT Technique, Brain Gym and Sensory Integration (from the University of California). She is an advanced Oral Placement Therapist and is currently the only therapist in India who has completed her Level 4 certification training in the same.
