"For outstanding efforts in strengthening
step relationships across America"

We address the issues of; how to organize it, how to build a partnership, couple strength, who comes first, roles, rules, responsibilities, manners, discipline, the ex spouse and much, much more.

We are the only organization to devote ourselves solely to these issues for over 30 years. We have identified the classic dynamics and have established proven solutions. Our work is supported by substantial research involving more than 3000 people living in step relationships.

“No other counselors have been able to help me STEP BY STEP with what to do with my boys. Our relationship is 150% better since our work with Stepfamily”

Jeff R. April 2007, New Hampshire

Traditional marriage and family counselors are trained to work with the biological family. They are not trained in the complexities of the stepfamily. The result, 66% fail. 84% of Stepfamily Foundation, Inc. clients succeed.

64% of families today live in some form of divorced and/or stepfamily relationship. They are:

	The Divorced Family
	Single parents, parents who visit, and their new partners
	The Re-Coupled, or Stepfamily
	formed when one are both partners have children from prior whether these children are residential or visiting.

Stepfamily Foundation Counseling on the telephone, worldwide, and in person with Jeannette Lofas Ph. D. and others.

Beginning in 1976, we have been guiding the 21st Century Family, the stepfamily to help it function successfully

Counseling sessions over the phone and in person are available at an hourly rate by appointment. Intensive sessions, in New York City or away, often involve 3 days and are scheduled well in advance.

Stepfamilies are not addressed, assessed and counted---further catapulting those in our society into the quagmire of ignorance. The numbers tell the story:
