Pooja Trehan
Communications professional

AVAILABLE FOR: Support and guidance for parents of kids with autism
FREE
EMAIL: poojatrehan@gmail.com

Pooja Trehan's son Shlok has been her best teacher. He was first diagnosed to be on the autism spectrum at the age of 2.8 years. Her learning curve as a mother has led her to help others with kids on the spectrum. "Helping mothers understand what they should be doing for their kids - give some time for the occupational therapy, slowly then move to speech, figure out the child's interest in sports or music or art - all this needs immense involvement," says Trehan. "I'm no doctor or medical professional. But all I can do is explain to another mother, my journey being mum to an awesome boy. Our special kids are empowered, and we have to just accept and acknowledge them to let their journey become fruitful."

RECOMMENDED BY: Nisha Jha, mum to Vihaan, "Every time a child is diagnosed, the parents' journey begins in darkness. Understanding the application of different therapies at different stages is not easy. Talking to Pooja helped me help my child better. Today, he cycles, swims, does basketball, and has slowly begun his speech."
