Holistic doctor Ivel De Freitas, MD calls Deutsch ‘The Father of the Science of Love’ - having theorized LOVE AS NOURISHMENT and UNCONDITIONAL BEHAVIOR as the only avenue toward having a positive relationship with Self and Others. His theory, postulated over 35 years ago, has now been supported by the scientific research of such acclaimed researchers as B. Fredrickson, J. Luby, J. Watson, H. Hendrix, E. Selhub, T. Field. Cancer survival rates are better, as well as Deutsch's own IRB approved, clinical trial at Danbuty Hospital, CT. results, that highlight that teaching doctors, nurses, and residents how take better care of themselves through self-love works. The result were accepted by both the American Medical Association. and the American Psychology Association.
Stefan Deutsch a therapist who other psychotherapists! His revolutionary theories of human development and love are being accepted and researched and utilized around the globe. He is a speaker in demand at major national and international conferences of psychotherapy, psychology, counseling, family therapy and more recently for corporate wellness programs.
Shawn Rubin, PhD, President of Division 32 of the American Psychological Association, Professor of Clinical Psychology, George Washington University, said the following, after attending Deutsch's 2-hour workshop at the Pittsburgh conference for the Society of Humanistic Psychology on integrating the theory of love into psychotherapeutic interventions;
“I am not a religious man, but G-d bless you for your work on love.”
3 weeks later he emailed Deutsch; “I want to thank you again for your critically-important work. It has helped me and my patients and brought a more loving consciousness to all of our lives. Your theory and tools are intrinsic to any healing.”
Deutsch is one of the few therapists who understands the need people have to feel hopeful about results right from the start. To assure that happens he teaches therapists to have sessions that are 1 and 1/2 hours long, charging the same fee as other therapists charge for their 45-50 minute sessions. When peope hear about love being nourishment, and get permission to love self in a mentally healthy way, they recognize it as at the root of their problems and the answer they have always been looking for.
His brilliant new approach and compassion for his clients’ needs have made him in demand around the globe. And his success has given birth to a mental health mobile App, now on Apple and Google, that focuses on preventing mental illness. 35 years of clinincal work led to developing, over an 8-year span, an App that functions like a college course. It is 21 weeks long, touching on 21 different aspects of mental health, each week requires 7 days of interactions. Sound like a lot of work?! Not really! There are 4 interactions a day - morning breakfast, lunch time, dinner time and bed time - that take only 5 minutes TOTAL each day. It generates change without imposing on your time at all. Miraculous no...it is based on the latest science of persoanl growth!
Developmental Psychotherapy has been specifically designed to have people;
- learn to love themselves, their spouse, and families unconditionally;
- learn to further develop their inner awareness,
- master effective communication skills for sending and listening unconditionally,
- master problems by envisioning, how to lovingly deal with issues in relationships,
Our clients learn to respect, appreciate, understand, accept, be patient, encourage, and be compassionate with themselves, and not accept anything less from people in their lives. They learn to say, "Not acceptable, in a loving way." It Works! That way they also become more appreciative, understanding, accepting, patient, encouraging, and compassionate with their spouse, children, family and friends. Therapists' trainings do not touch on love, so most therapists don't know how to teach their clients how to love self or ask for love in ways that will have others respond positively.
Developmental Psychotherapy is the first and only program to use both your potential to love and to grow as teaching/healing tools.
