Stefan Simanovich
(He/Him/His)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
I support people in healing and accessing well-being using EMDR therapy and somatic practices.
EMDR therapy and embodiment practices I have found to be powerful tools and interventions to support someone in finding balance, harmony and relief away from present day distress and symptoms. Please visit my website, www.transforwardcare.com, to learn more about me and my practice. There you can find more information about EMDR therapy, somatic techniques, services I offer, and insurance/payment. You can submit a form on the contact page to schedule a (free) consultation prior to setting up an initial appointment. My office is located close to downtown Raleigh and near NCSU campus. This is close to bus stops for those who lack access to a car.
