Integrating Life Experience, Science, and Spirit for Holistic Transformation

Stan Kletkewicz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology (PhD), and a change agent passionate about guiding clients toward profound, lasting transformation. His approach is distinctly holistic, integrating the psychological, physiological, and spiritual to ensure healing and growth are maximized across all dimensions of your life.

A Unique Blend of Real-World Business Acumen and Advanced Clinical Expertise

What sets Stan apart is his remarkable life trajectory. For 25 years, he was the successful owner of a wholesale distribution company, mastering the challenges of leadership, high-stakes decision-making, and relationship dynamics in the corporate world. This unparalleled background, combined with a PhD in Psychology and multiple advanced degrees, offers clients a unique advantage: a therapist who understands both the real-life pressures of success and the advanced clinical science of the mind and body.

Stan’s blend of expertise is particularly suited for individuals, couples, and families seeking a counselor who:

  • Understands the stress and complex dynamics inherent in business, leadership, and high-achieving lifestyles.
  • Values a holistic, outcome-focused approach to personal transformation.
  • Can provide a compassionate, yet practical perspective on life’s challenges.

Core Specialization: Healing and Strengthening Relationships with EFT

Stan has a profound dedication to helping couples and families move from conflict and disconnection to security and lasting connection. His primary specialty is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an extensively researched and highly effective treatment model for relationships.

Stan’s advanced training in EFT allows him to:

  • Pinpoint the underlying cycle of conflict that keeps couples stuck.
  • Identify the deeper, unmet attachment needs that drive relational distress.
  • Guide partners toward new, vulnerable, and meaningful emotional engagement, fostering a secure bond that can withstand future challenges.

He continues to attend seminars and supervision to sharpen his skills in this model, working with couples through issues such as chronic conflict, infidelity, life transitions, and communication breakdown.

Deepening the Holistic Focus

Stan believes that true healing is integrative. By addressing the whole person, he helps clients not just manage symptoms, but achieve fundamental shifts:

  • Neurological/Physiological: Utilizing cutting-edge, evidence-based therapies like EMDR and EX/RP to address how trauma and anxiety are stored and expressed in the body and brain.
  • Psychological: Applying models like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to heal relationships and Psychodynamic Therapy to explore deeper patterns, past experiences, and unconscious motivations that shape current behavior.
  • Spiritual: Honoring the client’s spiritual or value system as a vital resource for meaning, resilience, and personal growth.

Specialized Training & Commitment to High-Value Work

Stan’s dedication to advanced training reflects his commitment to providing the highest quality of care:

  • Trauma & PTSD: Specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and deep study with the Global Trauma Recovery Institute, including on-the-ground support to therapists in Rwanda.
  • Anxiety & OCD: Intensive training in Exposure and Response Prevention (EX/RP) Therapy from The Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety at the University of Pennsylvania.

Stan also offers advanced assessment tools for career counseling (Myers-Briggs, Strong’s Interest Inventory), premarital counseling (Prepare/Enrich), and emotional intelligence (EQ-I 2.0).

A Life Dedicated to Service

Stan’s compassion extends beyond the clinical setting. Between his corporate career and licensure, he dedicated time volunteering at a Federal Corrections Institute (Ft. Dix, NJ), working hands-on toward the rehabilitation of the residents to reduce the recidivism rate—a testament to his profound belief in the possibility of transformation and second chances for everyone.
