Hi, I'm Stefan

​​Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been drawn to helping people grow. My goal is to help each person I work with create a life of joy, fulfillment, connection, and to share their gifts with the world.

​

My 15 year career has spanned the intersection of education and mental health including: teacher, case manager, behavior counselor, tutor, educational therapist, and coach. What this work taught me is that everyone has value and strengths, people are resilient, connection is essential for growth, and there’s always a way to succeed if someone is willing to do the work.

​

This work is incredibly personal for me as a late-diagnosed adult with ADHD. I know the feeling of chaos, confusion, shame, hopelessness, and burnout. I also know the sense of renewal and self-reconnection that emerges from, prioritizing health, living in alignment with your values, and doing meaningful work. Growth is an ongoing process of hard work, asking for help, learning from the ups and downs, and trying again and again.

​​

Those who know me best describe me as goofy, intuitive, curious, passionate, and kind. Outside of work, I find joy spending time with my wife and cats, connecting with friends and family, being in nature, biking, paddleboarding, tending to my succulent and cactus garden, traveling, going to concerts, and playing board games.
