Stefan spends most of his days either, 1. working on his series of LOVE DECODED books that teach people why unconditional behavior is the foundation of health, success and happiness. The books are on personal development, relationships, parenting, aging, health and well-being; 2. seeing his clients (mostly couples, which brings him much satisfaction knowing a family will likely stay together); 3. giving talks and producing webinar series on a number of important topics; 4. consulting with educators, executives and CEOs, health care providers, NGOs, psychotherapists in order to enhance their staff training programs, curriculums, client approaches, and so forth. At present he is consulting with a team of physicians on the clinical trials of a program they believe will be a complete breakthrough in managing stress and eliminating burnout in the workplace. As always his contribution is how self-care, based on unselfish self-love, is the foundation for the effectiveness of most programs dealing with training people to achieve ‘permanent lifestyle changes’.
Working with philosophy and logic, the latest in brain research and positive psychology, he has developed new, groundbreaking theories of human development, marriage counseling, new approaches to parenting and developing Emotional Intelligence, aging, as well as dynamic modalities for psychotherapy, and personal development. His groundbreaking work with Loving Unconditionally has been especially powerful for healing marriages and parent-child relationships. The applications of all his theories have produced outstanding results in the areas of emotional healing, mental health, personal development, life goals and human relationships.
