Our Mission
FUNdamentals and Building Blocks is a pediatric occupational therapy practice, with locations in Falls Church, Virginia, and Washington, DC, and has been serving the greater Washington area since 2016. It is the mission of FUNdamentals to help children of all ages and disabilities overcome their delays, or challenges, through play/sensory-based therapy. Every child is different and at FUNdamentals we strive to provide each child, and their family, with their own individual strategies and treatment plans to help them function consistently in every day environments.
We have moved website locations. For all information regarding FUNdamentals and Building Blocks, please visit: https://buildingblockstherapy.com.

What is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy helps children refine, or develop, skills necessary to participate successfully in every day activities both at home and at school. Occupational therapists evaluate a child’s functional (fine/visual motor, gross motor, and sensory motor) level and if needed, create an individual plan to help the child reach their full potential. Here at FUNdamentals, our occupational therapists take a client centered approach so that the treatment fits in naturally with each family’s capabilities and needs.
"Listen to the mustn'ts, child, listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the wont's. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me. Anything can happen, child, anything can be.
— Shel Silverstein
