If you have a legitimate proof anout the work you have done during 2 years you can put in your resume. You can share the links or client references of your work. Most importantly you should be able to answer the questions related to your work. Faking wouldn't work for sure. You can update your LinkedIn profile with all your work and projects and ask clients to write recommendations and reviews about you and your work.
