About Me
I am Liji Elizabeth George, a qualified Speech–Language Pathologist with over 3 years of dedicated clinical experience in the assessment and intervention of pediatric communication disorders. I hold a Bachelor of Audiology and Speech–Language Pathology (BASLP) degree from Father Muller College of Speech and Hearing, one of the most reputed institutions in this field.
Professional Experience & Clinical Practice
I am currently working at Kidsbay Child Development Centre and also practice as a freelance pediatric speech and language therapist, offering therapy services both in-person and via telepractice for children across India and internationally.
Previously, I worked at Jewel Autism and Child Development Centre, where I gained extensive hands-on experience in managing children with neurodevelopmental communication disorders, including Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Across my clinical journey, I have worked with approximately 150–180 pediatric cases, addressing a wide range of concerns such as:
Speech and language delay
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Early communication and interaction difficulties
Oro-motor and speech sound production challenges
Areas of Specialization
My clinical expertise includes:

My therapy approach is evidence-based, individualized, and strongly focused on achieving functional communication outcomes that support the child’s real-life needs.
Support for Mainstream School Readiness
I have successfully supported 10–15 children in developing the communication, learning readiness, and behavioral skills required for mainstream school integration. This has been achieved through:
Structured and goal-oriented intervention
Regular caregiver guidance
Close collaboration with educators and professionals
Interdisciplinary Team Experience
I have extensive experience working as part of an interdisciplinary team, collaborating with:
