Jeffrey Marsh

oh. life coach. I don't think that is a qualified 'counsellor'.

Jeffrey Marsh is a very dangerous man.

And:

'This is not a regulated industry. There are no official or legal requirements for education, training, or credentials for someone starting relatively recently in this career. Technically, you can call yourself a life coach and begin working with clients immediately.'

wetrainlifecoaches.com/can-i-become-a-life-coach-without-a-certification/

Here we go:

'To begin a professional life coaching career, you should at least finish high school or earn your GED equivalent. There are no legal requirements to become a general life coach in California, so the best way to show your legitimacy to clients is by receiving certification from an agency. The best-known certification agency is The International Coach Federation (ICF), which offers different levels of life coach certification. All ICF certifications require you to complete a life coaching program accredited by the organization.'
...
'Life coach programs vary in length, because they depend on the level of certification you’re pursuing. Generally, expect to study at least 60 hours, with advanced certifications requiring more than 200.'

Aha! Thank you. I wonder what a 'life coach' license involves.

Yeah, I remain unsurprised at the lack of information. Thanks!

Exactly this. Which is both sad and scary. They must be very emotionally damaged to think in this way.
And to offer their “services” to young people who are experiencing similar situations.

From Jeffrey's Patreon page:

DISCLAIMER: Jeffrey Marsh is a licensed life coach in California and a Precepted Facilitator in the Soto Zen tradition of Buddhism and therefore does not diagnose or treat medical or mental health conditions.

@ArabellaScott

Jeffrey has studied and taught Zen for over twenty years. Their rigorous training while living as a monk at a Buddhist Monastery in California (as chronicled in ‘How To Be You’) resulted in Jeffrey receiving the status of Precepted Facilitator in the Soto Zen tradition of Buddhism. The rank of Precepted Facilitator is an elite category and marks a Zen practitioner trained to assist anyone toward spiritual growth.

Nope, this is all I can find.

I would be very concerned if this person was a qualified counsellor and acting in this way.

That is very very worrisome.

Omigod, that fake-soulful eye contact: so sinister.

This guy is the personification of creepy. He needs a hard-drive check ASAP.

Any details of those quals given, at all?

He comes across as an extremely angry hurt man. All this staring to camera and insisting you are worthy etc is him talking to himself. The hatred he has for your parents is because he hates his own. This is what he wanted his family to say to him. Instead he has no contact with anyone related to him and because he's angry he wants you to have no contact with yours either.
Imagine how low and desperate you'd have to be to find comfort in his videos. Definitely predatory behaviour disguised by green eyeshadow and garish outfits

That is one seriously sinister dude.

Someone has responded to my comment in a Jeffrey Marsh TikTok accusing me of being TERF 😂

I’ve also seen that their website has been altered. They now claim to be a qualified non binary counsellor.

This was really fucked up! Quite blatant and hard to dismiss.

It is baffling how many people are aggressively sticking up for him. He is so creepy. I don't think instincts are always right (I'm thinking of Christopher Jefferies) but equally there's something very alarming about people encouraging others to disregard the million and one red flags this person is waving. Gut feelings can be hugely protective.

I don't think there's anyone in this whole debate who gives me the heebie-jeebies more than Jeffrey Marsh :-(

Woah WOAH WOAH.

'if you see an adult like me, would you be extra nice to them'

YOU FUCKING WHAT JEFFREY

Good christ.

It always sounds to me like an attempt at hypnosis, or some weird sort of hypothetical love-bombing campaign.

'I see the real you'
'I love you'
'You are worthy'

I mean how sincere is someone who says 'I love you' into a camera? How deep is your love, Jeffrey?

His degree is in Performing Arts.

It's so obvious now you mention it.

This has just been uploaded by The State Media

Jeffrey feels he needs to tell us he's not a danger to children, I've never had to say that to anyone, but then in the final clip he says "you're very mature for your age, it's OK to have needs".

Eww

His degree is in Performing Arts.

When he he does the explosive high pitched manic laugh you can really see the mask slip

He also seems like a shell. What he says isn't reinforced by his demeanour, and when he tries to reinforce his words, it's all off, like a Thunderbirds puppet.

He reminds me of a particularly piss poor drama student. It's all an act which amounts to nothing more than grifting and grooming.

I've never seen him before (I don't do tiktok), but what is up with his eyes?

His pupils seem to be permanent pin pricks. If he didn't have the glitter schtick, I'd assume opioid use.

There's no way he's a Zen master. Zen masters are oceans.
