Dr. Young is a true life coach. His emotional intelligence, insight, and ability to understand and adapt to people are what set him apart. His advice is honest, sometimes tough to hear, but always exactly what you need. If you’re willing to listen and put in the work, you’ll see real change. He doesn’t hand you the answers but he does give you the tools and guidance to take control of your own growth.

What I really respect about Dr. Young is that despite his experience and credentials, he’s humble, down-to-earth, and truly cares. Thank you for everything, Doc we're just getting started!

I sought Dr Young's help to work out how to deal with a number of personal and professional dilemmas that I had no idea how to resolve. Dr Young was not like the typical therapist I had seen previously where you unload a bunch of problems and the therapist offers suggestions.. no, Dr Young takes a totally different approach.. I can scientifically say it's almost magical because it unfolds naturally and my growth and transformation was so profound that when some usually devastating things 'revealed' themselves I was ready. Dr Young knows exactly what is needed and learnt how I like to learn which allowed me to make this incredible transformation. This new me now has more progress to make and I look forward to my next phase with Dr Young in 2025.

Dr. Young has been a life raft for me the past several years. He's an all the above kind of therapist; attentive, compassionate, direct, professional, etc. He's like 3rd on my emergency contact list. Well worth the retainer. Hey, you never know. Life be life'in, we all need a Dr. Young to help us navigate and understand our gifts, emotions, thoughts, and goals to get the outcomes we desire from the experience.

Dr. Young’s expertise, compassion, and guidance have been nothing short of life-changing since the first session I had with him.

His insights are spot-on, and he has helped us gain new perspectives on our relationship dynamics that we had never considered before.

His approach is very holistic, incorporating not only relationship dynamics but also individual growth and self-awareness. This well-rounded approach enabled us to work on our personal issues and bring our best selves to the relationship.

Dr. Young is a true gem in this field, and his dedication to helping couples thrive is unparalleled. We are forever grateful for this journey of growth you have led us through! 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you for all that you do, Dr. Young.

Dr. Young's guidance has helped me tremendously by providing the tools and motivation needed to make positive changes in my life that continue to improve my health and wellbeing. He has helped improve my marriage by effectively communicating with my husband and motivating him in ways that no other counselor has been able to before. Our relationship continues to strengthen and I'm optimistic about the future!

I sought out Dr Young for help in dealing with self sabotage, ruminating and esteem issues. I was surprised at how fast we got to not only the roots of these issues but much more. Not only is he extremely professional but is a very kind and caring person. Dr Young is very disarming and personable while at the same time (you’ll find) has been paying attention to every detail about you as a person and everything you’ve been saying. The tools he has shared with me have been the solution to the issues I shared with him and have opened up even more new opportunities for personal growth. Thank you, sir.

As part of my desire for continued growth as an ICF certified Coach, I was seeking an experienced Coach as mentor. I don’t believe in coincidences, people enter specific seasons in your life for a reason; enter Dr. D. Ivan Young.

I read of his “no nonsense” approach as I prepared for our first session. And though he was direct, Dr. Young is better described as a masterful, grounded, and compassionate mentor and coach. With skillful attention to the not so obvious, he gracefully transitioned between both roles offering me significant moments of self-reflection and self-awareness.

I have experienced exponential internal growth, expanded my coaching toolkit and developed brand confidence and clarity. I am grateful for his mentorship and have great comfort knowing he will continue to be a partner in my journey.
