Jeff Levin Coaching

Jeff Levin, M.A.T., M.S.W.
I am a life coach who specializes in working with teens and 20-somethings and the adults who interact with them—families, parents, coaches, teachers, employers, etc.—to get people to be more calm, connected, and confident by teaching them emotional skills to reduce stress and anxiety.

By connecting the dots with respect to the global, rapid changes in our culture, I help young people reclaim the intangible emotional skills we older folks learned by osmosis.

Jeff Yalden

Jeff feels strongly that professional counseling is a great place for teens. Teens don’t trust in adults, especially counselors, and don’t feel they need therapy. A teen life coach, having been through the journey of mental health counseling, can really help your teen with understanding what counseling is. You can’t just say to a teen, “You need therapy.“ Therapy is a process and Jeff works with his clients to help them understand the benefits of therapy and perhaps medication, if that is needed. Teens trust in Jeff because he stays on their side and explains how it all works. Jeff validates their feelings and thoughts but shows the benefits of giving professional counseling a try and sticking to it. In the process of working with a teen life coach make sure that this teen life coach knows enough about mental health in teens. Also, this teen life coach understands their boundaries between a teen life coach and professional therapist. The two can easily work together. Jeff specializes in working with the client and another therapist. Jeff says, “We both have our strengths and I don’t interfere with the therapist at all.” Working together, it’s a win-win situation.
