Thank you for visiting Holistic Learning Center's website!
As the founder of the center, I am pleased to share our information as you pursue healthy alternatives to support your child's development.
Our mission is to support families with their quest for knowledge as it relates to the health, nutrition, language, motor development, cognition, and social skills necessary for their children to reach maximum potential. We offer parent training, school district training, and ongoing staff development, and individualized treatment for children from birth through teens. Social groups and parent information groups are offered as well.
Our center offers expertise in the field of language, learning, behavior, and motor delays/disorders. Children diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder, Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Autism, Sensory Processing Disorder, Auditory Processing Disorder, Language Delay, Learning Disabilities, and Global Developmental Delay are offered a variety of services to support their growth and development. However, we see children beyond any labels that describe them. We recognize a diagnosis, but it does not limit us to the unending possibilities of growth and potential.
Below are testimonials of the services people have received at our center. Please contact us for further information at the address and phone number below or through e-mail at Susan@hlcinfo.com.
Be well,
Susan Varsames, M.A. Ed.
Testimonials
"Susan Varsames is one of the most effective professionals in the field of ASD due to not only her massive acqusition of knowledge from stuyding and working with the kids but also because of her intuitive sense of how the kids are processing the world around them. She has shared her knowledge and perspective with so many others in her most generous and patient manner that there has been an exponential increase in the understanding of how to deal with ASD kids and what it is like in their shoes.
Over the last twelve years, Sue and HLC have provided our son with integrated ABA/occupational therapy, educational consulting, academic support, and one on one theatre arts workshops through colleagues that Sue is able to utilize for really creative therapies. She provided our family with an understanding of autism and an educational plan that took us from fear and dread to hope and new possibilities."

"When our son was first diagnosed with autism, everyone we talked to mentioned Sue's name. We knew we had to supplement our son's program by getting him the help from the HLC. Our son spent three years at HLC and made tremendous gains during those years. We credit his progress to Sue and her incredibly professional and talented team. We were extremely fortunate to have HLC as a resource."
-SLP Scarsdale, NY
"I have a nine year old son with autism who has been receiving services from the therapists at HLC for the past four years. We have had well trained, professional, hard working therapists throughout that time. My son has made so much progress as a result of their efforts."

"Susan's workshop was informative and hands-on. I will apply what I learned in my classroom tomorrow!"
-NK in NYC
"After years of both beneficial and harrowing experiences with special needs service providers, I can say with my hands on my heart that one place that was always on the positive side was HLC. From an initial Educational Consultation and Occupational Therapy, through "Tuesday Friends" social group and Computer Training, our son, Paul, thrived, learned, and enjoyed every minute being there. Watching the staff, especially Susan, makes you strive to be a better, more patient parent. They have my deepest gratitude and respect."
-Eleanor
"Having Sue work with David at the Holistic Learning Center for the past seven years has been such a blessing for us. She has taken him farther than we ever expected he would go. She is bright, patient, and so comprehensive in what she has to offer each child based on their individual needs. I would recommend Sue and the center to any family looking for a starting place after diagnosis, a learning center where they will receive services that really make a difference and a staff fully committed to getting their child to reach their full potential."

"It is very hard to truly express how lucky we feel to have Sue and all those who have found us because of Max."
