Theraplaytt began with a dream and a vision from Occupational Therapist Jeanne. Jeanne has been a member of the Trinidad and Tobago Occupational Therapy Association (TTOTA) family for about 5 years. She received her bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology and Health Science at York University, ON, Canada and received a Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy at the University of Queensland in Australia. Shortly after graduating in November 2012, Jeanne was eager to return home and begin her career in the field of pediatrics. Jeanne loves working with children and helping empower them to work towards their full potential. Since April 2013, Jeanne has been working in pediatric outpatient private clinics, as well as at a school for children on the Autism spectrum. Before coming to work in Trinidad, Jeanne has worked with children and adolescents in acute inpatient programs and outpatient clinics. Jeanne truly loves engaging and learning from the children and families here in Trinidad and is devoted to promoting the highest level of development and improving their daily lives. She is passionate about her career and enjoys nothing more than the pride many children get from seeing the progress they are making!

Autism in girls

Autistic girls are diagnosed later and less often as autistic boys, with one study hypothesizing up to 80% of autistic girls are undiagnosed/misdiagnosed at the age of 18.

Now, we don’t know the exact percentage, but I do think it’s pretty high. However, autistic girls DO usually have observable differences (even with masking) that parents and professionals can recognize, and hopefully get them the support they need early on.

Organizing a messy desk

Some students have a messy desk constantly. It's so bad that they can't find their books, homework, planner, notebooks, folders, and even a pencil. Don't flip the desk!

Here are executive functioning tips from a school based OT to help students keep their desk relatively neat so they can find the school supplies they need to learn: https://www.theottoolbox.com/organization-tips-for-students-organize-kids-school-work
