Kristine Quiros, an occupational therapist (OT) in Florida, has set up Theraplay@Home so that children with autism and other developmental disabilities can be in comfortable surroundings for their treatment. She believes that she is the "therapy coach" for parents and other caregivers who spend most of their time with the child. She will "mentor, empower, make therapeutic suggestions, demonstrate techniques, and even provide the therapy when [she is] with the child, yet progress can be significantly more effective when caregivers have incorporated therapy activities into daily routines." She works with children on occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech therapy, and sensory integration issues. She feels that inclusion can be best for special needs students, and that no one suffers when a teacher spends time on sensory activities since they're good for all children.
