We will be forever grateful that God lead us to Dr. Young. After 38 years of marriage we found ourselves facing a divorce. We started counseling sessions and continued to pray for our marriage. After unsuccessful counseling sessions with seven different counselors, our prayers were answered and lead us to Dr. Young. His knowledge, experience and understanding of our situation is exceptional. His step by step instructions and tools are tremendous for our transformation process. He is honest, upfront and sincerely cares, which are critical for achieving a successful outcome to any situation. We thank God every day for bringing Dr. Young into our lives.

Dr. Young is the truth and speaks the truth with wisdom and a firm love! He has given me the tools to grow and become the man, husband, father, step-father, and ex-husband that builds healthy boundaries and family structure. Dr. Young has helped open my eyes, mind, and spirit to a much better way of handling my family, that makes them feel and know they are a valuable stakeholder in each of their own lives as well as the family unit.I strongly recommend Dr. Young to any man that is determined to leave a strong legacy for his family, even if it is a blended family.

I have been following Dr. D. Ivan Young for some time and have gained much insight, knowledge, thought provoking moments of self reflection from all of his messages I have come across on various platforms. He is definitely a man with so much integrity who not only talks the talk but is about what he delivers. It’s those introspective conversations and gems of knowledge he delivers that has allowed me to identify the debris in my life and to push through some of my personal Goliaths. For that, I am deeply grateful to him.

Dr. D. Ivan Young has been a God send!He took the time to get to know me and my needs. He has poured into my life tremendously. He prompted the mental paradigm shift that I needed. He doesnt allow me to make excuses and he pushes me when I cant push myself. He is always genuine and straightforward when interacting with me.I recommend Dr. Young to anyone who is really ready for a positive life change.

If you are SERIOUSLY, I repeat SERIOUSLY, looking for help to dig into your life’s issues and stop repeating the same cycles, then you’ve found the right person. Dr. Young will force you to do the work in your own life to get you living your greatest life! He is professional, holds you accountable, and will give it to you straight. What he won’t do is tell you “what” to do, you’ll get there all on your own, trust me! What I like about him most is even though he is highly educated and stretches your intellect he is down to earth. So if you’re not ready to do the work, find someone else.

Dr Young has been a Godsend following COVID-19. At a point in life where it seemed everything was falling apart for everyone, Dr Young found a way to creatively help me. He is very empathetic, which allows him to connect with clients on a whole new level, making them feel cared about and not just a number.

I have been working with Dr. Young for only a few months. However, the progress made during this time is far beyond my original expectations. Dr. Young has helped me to change the way I see not only myself but the world around me as well.

Becoming a client of Dr. Young is the absolute best investment that I have ever made for myself. Ive been to other therapist in the past and I have yet to find one with the experience, expertise, and genuine concern that Dr. Young has to offer.Dr. Young is extremely knowledgeable in his profession and in my opinion the ABSOLUTE BEST!! Everything that he discusses with you during your session is backed by facts. He provides you with tools and resources that he gives you as follow up work to read and understand for yourself. He breaks complex information down in the simplest form and transforms neural pathways in your brain without you even being conscious of what’s actually taking place. He has an ability to connect with you exactly where you are. I appreciate the fact that he has a genuine concern and takes a special interest in each of his clients. He wont tell you what you want to hear but he will be honest with you and tell you exactly what you need to hear and equip you with tools and resources to continue down the path of success.I would highly recommend him to anyone who is truly looking to change his or her life! You get out what you put in with him! I’m forever grateful for his services and the personal impact that he has had on my life!

Dr. Young is the best in his craft. I came into his office unclear, distracted and frustrated. I had been what many would consider successful, but I had many areas that needed uncovering, addressing, and improving. After months of working with Dr. Young, my life has been GREATLY impacted in a positive way. My upward trajectory has been forever changed. Dr. Young helped me to gain clarity and increased my capacity to accomplish everything that aligns with my personal goals and values. I’m now in the best season of my life. Thank you for all you’ve done.

First of all, I believe therapy is important period. Gaining knowledge into how our mind and emotions work is an invaluable asset for everyone. Ive worked with therapists during certain seasons in my life and have had positive results. With Dr. Young I experienced results much faster! His techniques help you to create change quickly and effectively. YOU will do the work and because of that youll reap incredible benefits! I have been amazed at the capacity of mental space and energy I now have to focus on things I WANT to do. INVEST IN YOURSELF. See Dr. Young. I could not recommend him more!

The relationship counseling and reading material Im getting from Dr. Young has been very insightful, to the point, and structured.It has helped me understand my partner better, communicate my needs in a positive way, enhance my skills to foster positive relationships with others, and has given me insight on more positive ways to approach some of the challenges I face raising my kids. The bigger blessing is how my husband is transforming into a more confident and self aware being thats growing in ways that will propel him beyond what he can think or imagine. If you are looking for a no nonsense therapist that can speak and relate on any level, Dr Young is your guy.

Review №16

I am writing this review 1 year after having met Dr. Young. I needed time to reflect and soak in all of the hard work we both put into our meetings.Year 32 was the most introspective for me. I poured out a lot of thoughts and took in even more. I challenged myself to tackle my most hidden feelings with someone I didn’t know. A counselor, an advisor. I specifically wanted a black male. Someone I know that is relatable but would make me uncomfortable enough to test my courage. Because of my dad, I’ve always put black men on a pedestal and had high expectations for them. It’s easier to talk about the “good” things, the obvious things. But the shadowed, unsure things left me vulnerable. Through moments of tears, laughs, awkward silence, defense, anger, happiness, fulfillment, sadness, clarity, frustration, and nothingness...I progressed. At the end of our sessions, it wasn’t about measuring up to him but allowing him to see me for who I am. To know that I’m not here to impress or compete, but to push myself into uncomfortable spaces where learning who I am is an ongoing ambition. This was for me. Thank you Dr.Young • 33 has big shoes to fill

Dr. Young is truly gifted. If you walk into his office with an open mind and willingness to put in the work it takes, you can change your whole life. My relationship was on the verge of falling apart, fast forward to some months of counseling with Dr. Young and we are now engaged, with a whole new perspective and appreciation for ourselves and our relationship. I seriously don’t think we’d be here without the help and guidance of Dr. Young. He’s equipped with wisdom, honesty, integrity and all the tools you need to evolve - it’s up to you to make it happen. Your life can go from darkness to beautiful light if you allow yourself to be helped and transformed. The work he does can truly change lives and we appreciate him so, so much for it.

Review №18

Becoming a client of Dr. Young has been one of the best decisions and investments I’ve ever made in my life. I believe that God allows people to be put in your path at a specific time, for a specific reason. Timing was everything. I am forever grateful that God allowed His timing and His plan to take place. I originally went to see Dr. Young with relationship/marital issues. I thought that by the end of the program that my marriage would be restored. Instead, I got something better. That was self-restoration, growth, healing and empowerment. Through this coaching program, Dr. Young has helped me evolve into someone that I was never able to foresee. In less than a year, I found myself glowing differently. My spirit is more at peace and aligned with tranquility and balance. Thank you, Dr. Young, for being so real and blunt. This, too, is transferring into my life which allows for less miscommunication, less drama and an immense talent of boundary setting. I will never be the same woman I was before. I am so grateful to know the woman I am today and the woman I am continuing to blossom into.

Dr. D Ivan Youngs services are outstanding. He offers a safe place without judgement to assess and provide a comprehensive guide to improve your lifestyle, professional, and personal goals. When I began my sessions, I wasnt sure what I needed or how to resolve my issues. Dr. Young took the time to complete a comprehensive personality assessment and then listened to my concerns to help me discern the direction and path forward. It has been refreshing and eye opening to have this level of expertise in my life. With his guidance, I have been able to make better decisions and have clarity about my blind spots so I dont fall back into the same trap as before. He is simply the best and has the credentials to go with it. Thank you Dr. Young for pulling me out of my own mess and making me face reality even when I didnt want to. You rock!!!

Dr Young is the best life coach! I have been to several therapist and family counselors to try and figure out how to work on my relationship. I knew it was toxic relationship for both of us, but I didn’t have the strength to leave. We have a child and I tried so hard to make things work. It only took one session with Dr You g for me to realize the harm it was causing my son to stay in a situation where both of us were unhappy and staying together was actually hurting us not helping our family. After the first session with Dr Young, I talked to my partner and told him we needed space to work on ourselves individually and be the best co parents. We both agreed to work on ourselves and I see so much progress for both of us! I can’t thank Dr Young enough. For years I have given my last dollar to others and put myself last. This was the first time I invested in myself like this, and I realize you can’t fill others cups when yours is empty. I’m finally working on myself and I feel happier, healthier, and lighter. I highly recommend!

Dr. D Ivan Young, has truly been instrumental in helping me re-align my focus and deal with the meat of things. Before, I guess I was merely dealing with surface matters. Now because of his guidance and truth, I am now on target to bringing some amazing things into fruition in my life. If you want help and someone to tell you the truth so you can have success and live your best life. I would recommend you call him. But, if you are not ready for truth or to do the work, please wait until you are truly ready for results. Because that is what he delivers.

Dr. Young is a brilliant life coach. He provides excellent service to his clients. He went above and beyond the call of duty to assist me with my personal dilemma. He provided me with a plan to resolve it. He also followed up to see if I needed any further assistance. He is absolutely brilliant.

Review №24

My now ex-wife and I went to Dr Young for professional counseling as a last effort to save our marriage. During our initial meeting with Dr Young he boast and bragged about the famous people hed counseled, the TV shows he appeared on, and the awards hed received. I thought all of these were great accomplishments, but it really didnt mean much to me. The only thing I cared about was whether he could help us save our marriage. Dr Young proceeded explained to us that he sells his sessions in a bulk package deal. I cant remember the exact cost but it wasnt cheap. We decided to go ahead and pay for the sessions so that we could begin the road to saving our marriage. After a couple of meetings together Dr. Young requested to see us separately. During my first session alone with Dr. Young, he sat in a chair facing me with his laptop in his lap. He was constantly on his laptop during the entire session. This didnt bother me because I assumed he was taking taking notes so he could reference back during future sessions. As he was concluding our session, I noticed through the reflection of his desktop computer that he was not taking notes. As a matter of fact he was actually on social media the whole time. I was in shock. When I get this upset about something I always try to think it over for awhile before reacting. This is the reason I said nothing while I at his office. I am sure he would not have done something so disrespectful had I been one of those famous people that he loves to brag about. Needless to say that was my last session with Dr Young. At first I felt like Id wasted a lot of money. The money wasnt wasted, it felt like it was stolen from because of his no refund policy. Ive finally decided to write this review in hopes to make others aware so that they wont have to go through the same thing.

Dr. D Ivan Young receives a 5 star rating for great customer service, great services rendered and professionalism. I’ve been going to Dr. Young for almost a year. I reached out to Dr. Young in search for a relationship counselor. I love the fact that he’s certified in MBTI and the approach that he took with my boyfriend at the time and myself. I loved the fact that Dr. D Ivan Young’s approach is to understand the personalities of your clients in order to better serve them. He also took the time to educate and explain our personality traits and the steps needed to take in order for us to move forward with our sessions and relationship. Moving forward, my relationship ended but my services continued. I was provided with personal counseling and gained a life coach.I highly recommend Dr. D Ivan Young for any of his services provided. I love the fact that he’s a “realist” and very motivating.

Dr D. Ivan Young has changed our familys life! He gave us insights that we needed, helping us to communicate with one another in a much needed and healthier way. After taking several personality types, he was able to specifically address each of our weakness and our strengths. He gave us step by step tools that were extremely helpful. Simple, yet impactful. I have been so encouraged with our family dynamics changing in such a positive direction. Dr. D helped us learn that power IS knowledge. Our family can now walk hand in hand bettering ourselves while bettering each other. We still have challenges ahead but we are better equipped to navigate life together, fully loving one another along the way. As a Life Coach, Dr. D has helped our young adult son learn to self actualize, to appreciate the blessings in life, and to turn mistakes into lessons. I have seen such a huge, positive change in our son! All thanks to Dr. D., who truly has an amazing God given talent to help others become the best version of themself. I am forever grateful for Dr. Ds counseling and coaching with our son & our family, and for sharing his amazing gift in helping others! I highly recommend him, do not look any farther, you have found The Best.

Me and my wife are relatively early in our marriage (3 years). We both are type A personalities and just could not figure out a way to listen to one another once we started to argue. Our arguments were caustic. It was all becoming too much to deal with and we needed some help to get us beyond ourselves. Thats where Dr. Young came in. Dr Young is analytical yet down to earth in his approach. He wont bend the truth and will tell you just the way it is, which i like. His approach is structured which both me and my wife needed. This was a lot different then a lot of the other counselors that we called who did not really have a set method and often replied with it depends when asked what the next 6-8 weeks looked liked for me and my wife. Dr Young helped to educate us so we could see ourselves and better understand each of our personality traits and the when, where, what, whys behind each of our traits. We walked through how each of us deal with conflict and really got a better understanding of how we kept having a miss as it relates to our communication. If you are looking to make a change, if you dont have thin skin and need someone to provide the tools and resources to correct course in your relationship or in your life, then I would recommend that you pick up the phone and give Dr. Ivan Young a call. Dont let his high level of confidence push you away. I thought he was a little cocky when i called too. He told me to call around and that Id end up giving him a call back. Hell, the man was right! Im sure glad i did too.

Dr Young has truly been a blessing over the past year. When I first began seeing Dr. Young I was lost, and confused with little direction in my life.Since seeking guidance from Dr. Young I’ve been able to create a vision for my future and gain clarity in my life. I know what I desire for myself; I’m motivated disciplined and excited about what the future holds.

I first encountered Dr. D after hearing him lecture on the Laws of Attraction in 2015. I was blown away by his engaging presentation. Not only is he an engaging and knowledgeable speaker, his communication style was very user friendly. Since that time our firm has retained him as our executive development coach. Our team is composed of people from 4 nationalities, age ranges from 24 to 59, and of course both genders. All of us agree that hes greatly improved our EQ and our performance as team for the better. I, my wife, and other family members utilize his services in his private practice. He has help to mend our marriage and repaired an estranged relationship between two feuding family members thats lasted for over a decade. All I can say is if you need to get order in your life hes the guy. This has definitely been money well spent.

Dr. Young has a very structured approach. Prepare to study on your own on a weekly basis to get the most from his coaching. You dont receive directives, templates or instructions, you work towards gaining an ability to see things clearly and find the right solution in any situation life brings your way. I wish I did this sooner in my life.

Review №40

Dr. Young and I must vibrate on the same frequency. Almost a year ago in a state of misery, depression and tears, I called his office just to schedule an appointment assuming Id get an assistant. Instead, in this one instance, he decided to answer the call. He not only listened to what I had to say, but made sure I was able to reach him in the event of a crisis, after that. In our sessions this is what I learned: A balanced heart is a beautiful thing. However, most of us—at one point or another will encounter major blockages in this area. A myriad of life circumstances can cause problems for your heart center and in my case like a lot of his clients, it was due to a traumatic divorce. In his teachings, he provides guidance on how to connect with nature, be love, give love, forgive, and self-love is not being selfish. He held my hand and walked me through investigating my feelings of fear; harnessing the power of change, and dont laugh - being a little weird. Life purpose is inherently weird and unique to you. In other words: of course it’s going to look weird to others because its wholly unique. You express your life purpose in a way that only YOU can. In the past year, my life has evolved to a whole new purpose and meaning! I with an open heart, filled with gratitude thank him for his wisdom and gifts!

Dr. Young is extremely professional and transparent. He taught me so much about personality and what I should and should not accept from others. He walked me through a difficult situation in my life and I grew so much from his guidance. When I compare who I was when I met him and where I am not, I am simply amazed. I would not be where I am today if it was not for Dr. Young. I have referred him to several people because his techniques are unlike anyone else I have ever met. Thank you Dr. Young for everything!

Dr. Young is nothing short of amazing. When I first came to him I was lost and confused about where my life was heading. I was angry about my past experiences, and couldnt understand why I was stuck in the same cycle that I had been trying so hard to escape. Working with Dr. Young has been life changing. He helped open my eyes to so many things about my life that I was allowing to keep me stuck. Now moving forward I am healed from the inside out and have a clear vision of what my lifes purpose is and what I need to do in order to become what I was placed on this earth to become. He is most definitely one of a kind and I guarantee you wont find a coach/mentor like him anywhere else.
