About Stefan

I'm Stefan Simanovich, founder of Transforward Care, which I established in 2019 to expand access to holistic, integrative care.

I earned my Master's in Social Work from Columbia University in 2015 and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker authorized to practice in North Carolina, New York, and Connecticut. I'm a certified EMDR therapist through EMDRIA and certified clinical hypnotherapist through IACT. I completed my past-life regression therapy certification with renowned psychiatrist Dr. Brian Weiss at the Omega Institute for Holistic Studies in New York.

My professional background includes diverse settings from school social work to specialized trauma clinics and forensic social work.

I enjoy teaching and have presented workshops on topics related to trauma focused, integrative care and gender holism, such as serving as a clinical instructor of social work at Yale University’s Department of Psychiatry.

My vision for creating Transforward was to establish a space where individuals can achieve long-term healing, irrespective of circumstances, backgrounds, or identities. I am passionate about integrating clinical methods with holistic understanding and advancing the field through practice-driven research.
