Mdm. Sherine's area of interest is in children with learning disabilities and developmental disorders. She carries out various assessments on children from the ages of 12 months to 17 years old. She does intelligence testing, developmental assessments, screening for autism, screening for learning disabilities (dyslexia) and behavioural assessments. All assessments are written up as a report for the child's file, parents and the doctor who referred. Based on the assessment, the necessary needs are addressed through individualised intervention.
