Dear Mr. Deutsch,
I want to thank you for making my divorce process an opportunity for both growth and healing. I never dreamed that it was possible, and my friends all laughed when I first shared your suggestion that it was possible.
- First, formulating my vision for the divorce; from choosing the perfect attorney, having the process flow smoothly with my husband/kids, getting the right settlement, worked for all the areas.
- Choosing my attorney and expressing my vision to her. When she said things like "well I don't think that can happen", I said that unless it's really going against your expert legal advice, I'd like you to see if you can find a fair way to make this happen.
- When speaking with my husband, expressed how I expect him to behave. My communication was; "Well I know you've always been an excellent provider for me and the kids and I'm sure you'll continue to treat us the same way", etc.
- When meeting with my husband’s attorney for the first time I expressed my vision for him by telling him that I was very happy in my husband’s choice for an attorney. That I heard he had an excellent reputation for being very fair and that I was sure he'd help to facilitate a fair, quick, amicable divorce settlement.
- In any meetings I made sure I sat next to my husband rather than in a confrontational position (sitting directly opposite him). I also made sure I used visualization that everything was progressing smoothly and following my vision. During the meetings I kept calm and didn't speak out unless I was very clear on what I wanted to say.
-I'm always careful about how I speak to my husband, asking myself if what I'm about to say will be said to "just hurt him" or to just "get even", etc. especially when he is saying hurtful words.
Maintaining these principals has helped us maintain a better relationship with each other. Many people comment (attorney's included) that our divorce is "not typical".
Knowing that he had planned for years to divorce me and marry someone else, hiding his business and bank assets, and mistreating me emotionally, I find it hard to believe, even now that everything is over, and I got everything I wanted, that things could work out this well. My family and friends, and even my attorney told me to be ready for the worst.
I owe it all to your powerful healing therapy.
Blessings,

Dear Stefan.
Tom and I’ve been thinking about you a lot. I can’t believe how far we’ve managed to come since we worked with you. I have to give you all the credit in the world for getting us back on track, after 5 years of impossible relationship. I wanted to write out how you’ve helped us & hope that it finds it’s way to someone else needing inspiration to reach out & make a change.
Working to develop our awareness, helping us to create a new vision for the relationship, learning how to communicate with each other using dialogue and vision, and teaching us that loving unconditionally is possible has helped us grow and heal.
I won’t say that we don’t still have issues – we do. Money talk is better (it helps that I got a huge raise & Tom got a promotion & raise). Intimacy is still a challenge for us – we’re both still uncomfortable talking about it or initiating it. But we’re talking about talking about it, you know? We are working on starting a family. We found out in June that I was pregnant. But you’ve been on my mind so much lately and I just wanted to let you know & thank you. I’m attaching one of our pics so you can see how happy we’ve come to be.
I hope you and your family are well.

Dear Mr. Deutsch,
As I reflect back on our several sessions I am finally, and more fully aware, of the valuable lessons you have taught me......and you've done it not so much with words, but simply by leading me to, and through, this "process" of awareness, vision, communication, loving…..toward manifesting what I want in life.
From the very first session you allowed me to create my own vision regarding life’s possibilities. Each session encouraged me, and required me, to go to a deeper level of awareness and to define my visions even further.
Then began the task of looking even more carefully and honestly at the vision and asking myself the difficult and necessary questions. How would it fit into my current lifestyle and visions? Would the end result bring me closer or further away from my ultimate life-time vision and purpose? These and many other questions required my sincere attention.
After much soul-searching I was able to realize that incorporating this new vision into my life would cause me to diffuse and fragment the other visions I currently hold.
I am in awe of the subtle way you taught me this lesson and my naiveté in not recognizing it sooner. At this point I can only admire and respect you as a teacher and a human being. I am so grateful to have spent this time with you and look forward to any other opportunities to learn from you.
I am so much better prepared to manifest the opportunities and results that I desire, into my life. My heartfelt thanks to you for the time we've spent together, as well as your guidance and support on this part of my journey.
I know you will continue to share your gifts with all of humankind. Again, I thank you and wish you well.
Warm Regards,
Bev G., CEO

Dear Stefan,
In the past I thought I knew everything about what I wanted and needed. Thanks to you, I gained clarity in recognizing my relationship needs which lead me towards a man who is everything (and more) that I wanted in a mate. I would never have recognized that he was the right person without your guidance.
Having my goals clearly spelled out increased my awareness and started attracting different people to me, and me to different people.
I also have used the communication skills to express my goals and needs. I am no longer afraid to ask for what I want, because I have learned how to communicate. The other unexpected benefit from communicating so openly is the respect that is being built.
Your ideas of developing awareness, self-expression, creating new visions, and loving unconditionally have worked for me.
I feel so much more in control, I understand exactly what is going on inside of me, and I am beginning to like life much more.
You have a dynamic approach which inspired me. I didn't think I could find something so simple to use and yet so powerful in accomplishing my goals in life.
Thank you for helping me to evolve. Sincerely,
Barbara G.

Dear Stefan,
You have so much to offer so many people.
At this stage of my life I had gone through therapy with some positive results, have read a ton of books because I also love to read, taken some workshops, but still didn't know why relationships weren't working for me. It always seemed as if people liked me, I liked them, and then it would just fall apart. You're teaching and philosophy gave me a tool to use to apply to relationships, to become crystal clear about what my needs are, and that I deserve to have my needs met.
I am in control now and it's just a matter of time before I find the right person. I hope you will give me the opportunity to help you make that same impact on as many other people as I can. I can think of no better way to use my skills than to use them to deliver your message that helps others and makes a positive impact on their lives.

Dear Mr. Deutsch,
I want to thank you for making the tremendous extra effort to help us graduate from your Marriage Enrichment course.
Gerry and I really enjoyed and got a great deal out of the series overall - and the last class was very important. And, yes, we intend to participate in the next series as our Valentine's day gift to each other. Thanks again!

Dear Mr. Deutsch,
Your awareness and goal oriented therapy worked for us. Then using your dialogue system – mirroring each other’s communications with compassion, while focusing on our goals, became a great communications tool. We see such incredible results from the mirroring. On a day-to-day basis it is still difficult sometimes to switch to mirror mode. But we are working on it and trying to be conscious of it!
Best,

We're in. Finally! This has been a vision unfolding so I fully appreciate your teaching us how to create a 'blueprint' of what we want. I feel that I am doing it, and recognize the power it holds to envision & dream, plan, and do.
Wishing you well, Stefanie

Dear Mr. Deutsch,
Thank you so much for the wonderful experience of being a guest on your radio show. It was absolutely great to participate in the lively and very interesting discussion.
I loved every minute of it especially the call-ins, and would LOVE to come back to join both of you again.
I can't wait to hear your subsequent shows now that I'm aware of THE BEST IS YET TO COME!( What a great title for a great show!)
It was great to learn about your dynamic, new Continuum Theory of Human Development.
I would love for you to come and present workshops for both my staff and parents. I am confident they would be a huge success and that both groups would benefit greatly from such workshops.

"Dear Stefan,
This past year has been the most freeing experience of my life.
Before I would struggle with the fears of expressing my thoughts and feelings. I love my parents and had no idea that the messages I received as a child kept me from having the courage to say what was on my mind.
I believe I have gained so much awareness and know that I am the one in control of my future. I can choose to change myself for the better, or, keep all of my "bad habits".(Why would I want to do that?)
Once I was able to really grasp this concept I felt a great sense of hope. It was as though someone had released my imaginary shackles that, in my mind, had held me back.
My relationship with my husband has improved, my attitude toward our business, and my overall sense of well-being are much, much better. Thank You for this gift."

"Dear Mr. Deutsch,
The Continuum Experience has been a phenomenal encounter me. For the first time as an adult, I am becoming re-acquainted with, and further developing my true spirit.
I became a student in October of 2002, only to experience two future possibilities of obtaining my dream of a job, just out of nowhere; this has never happened to me before.
There is something very positive to this philosophy of self. I am excited and happy to be given the opportunity to be a part of your research, The Continuum Experience!"

"Dear Mr. Deutsch,
I have always been a seeker. Since my job is counseling I am always looking for resources to improve my effectiveness. I was also interested in my own personal development. Then a friend of mine introduced me to you and the Continuum Theory.
Before learning the theory, I still experienced difficulty understanding my own behaviors and mind set. Why was I sabotaging my own efforts to fulfill my goals and dreams? Why was my marriage not nurturing and growing? Why was I afraid to ask for support from anyone, including my parents who loved me?
After learning the theory everything became so clear in a matter of weeks. It all now seems so simple and obvious. What I love about your theory is that people of all ages, all backgrounds and education can use it and benefit.
I now use The Continuum Theory in every single area of my life. I am sharing it with my friends.
I will be forever grateful for this simple, powerful tool."

"Dear Mr. Deutsch:
We thank you so much for returning to the Sandel Senior Center and presenting again your most positive message to our members.
As you saw for yourself, it was very enthusiastically received both times. We are always looking for people who inspire our members - and you certainly do that. You challenge each person to rethink the role model they are to their children and grandchildren - to rethink their potential effect on society as a whole.
As I am doing doctorate work on the efficacy of Seniors at this stage of life, I am very interested in your concepts. Your belief, that it is this very population - 'Life Pros' as you call them - who must empower themselves and guide society from experience, love, compassion, etc., is almost revolutionary. I believe your theory of human development has the ability to motivate people - and help them continue their development - reaching to create life in the direction they desire.
Thank you for selecting our center to participate as part of your important research and work in the field of aging and human development. We would like to explore having you lead an on-going workshop series, "Developing a Person's Self", starting in the spring. We feel that our members would gain immeasurably and would make the same commitment they now have to other on-going programs.
