Tamara Ciciliani je magistar znanosti – lingvistika (Sveučilištu Purdue, Sjedinjene Američke Države) i magistar struke – logoped (Edukacijsko-rehabilitacijski fakultet, Sveučilište u Zagrebu). S radom je započela 2003. godine i radila u različitim ustanovama (dječji vrtić, osnovna škola, dom za djecu bez roditeljske skrbi, kabinet za ranu intervenciju). Terapiju oralnog pozicioniranja (OPT™) je počela primjenjivati prije 11 godina kada je počela raditi u kabinetu koji je pružao uslugu rane intervencije. Logika i organiziranost TalkTools® tehnika su je potaknule da istražuje više o ovoj terapiji pa je sa svojim kolegama organizirala prvu TalkTools® edukaciju u Hrvatskoj (Stupanj 1) i distribuciju TalkTools® alata za područje Hrvatske. Nekoliko godina kasnije, njezina kolegica i ona su završile Stupanj 2 i 3 TalkTools® edukacije i tako postale prvi TalkTools terapeuti na području Hrvatske. U listopadu 2021. godine Tamara planira steći kvalifikaciju TalkTools® terapeuta 4. stupnja.
godine Tamara i njezina kolegica osnivaju Feralić – centar za razvojnu podršku te se u svom radu usmjeravaju na podršku obiteljima i djeci predškolske dobi. Tamara radi procjene i terapijsku podršku za djecu s teškoćama hranjenja, oralno-motoričkim teškoćama te komunikacijskim i jezično-govornim teškoćama. Primjenjuje Terapiju oralnog pozicioniranja (OPT™) u svakodnevnom radu. Važan segment njezinog rada je podrška i edukacija roditelja te suradnja s drugim
