About

“I have always felt incredibly humbled, honored, continually inspired and still feel an awesome responsibility for the insight I have been given into the true nature of reality, specifically “What Love Is” – says Deutsch. What is Love? was the #1 search phrase on Google recently – and continues to be a romantic ‘mystery’ to many. Actually, it is the fundamental  piece missing from child and adult development and thriving.

Stefan Deutsch has been devoted to the study of thriving, enriching relationships, healing therapies and mental health for over 35 years. His undergraduate studies were in Astrophysics and Philosophy, and graduate studies in Psychology and Human Development. Working with the latest in brain research, along with Gestalt, CBT, Neuro-linguistic Programming and positive psychology, he has developed a groundbreaking theory of love, and its application to relationships, psychotherapy, couples counseling, parenting and personal development.

His groundbreaking work with loving unconditionally has been validated by his collaboration with Dr. Ivel de Freitas, MD at an IRB approved clinical trial at Danbury Hospital, CT – training doctors and nurses how to prevent burn-out through applying self-love to self=care. Fredrickson research at the University of North Carolina and published in Love 2.0, uses Deutsch’s theory, that  ‘Love is essential Nourishment, like air, food, and water,” as its conclusion.

Deutsch’s book Love Decoded is especially powerful for mental health, personal development, keeping marriages healthy, as well as healing marriages and improving parent-child relationships. The App took 8 years to fully develop, with 2 years of BETA testing with 56 university’s students, Psychotherapists and their clients, and the general public.

The Love Decoded App – Public ………………….is even more powerful, as it involves you body and mind and soul.

“You Are Born To Be Loved” – is the name of his state-of-the-art mental health App, based on the results of the clinical trial and 35 years of clinical work with the theory of love.
