Cameron O'Brien, ACC

Associate Coach / ICF-Certified Teen Life Coach

Cameron trained at the Youth Coaching Institute and is a Certified Youth Resilience Coach. She specializes in working with teens and young adults with psychological disorders.

With a BA in sociology and inequality studies from Cornell University, her passion has always been connecting with people. “I love diving into their narratives and serving as a pillar in my community,” she says, fueling her enthusiasm for her role at MyTeenLifeCoach.

Before her role here, Cameron was a community reporter for six years. In that role, she worked closely with community leaders to report on protests, violence, drug epidemics, breakthroughs, and other community issues. Years of reporting came with hundreds of stories from people around the nation, from adults and elderly to teens and kids.

Emphasizing her mission, Cameron assists teens in uncovering their true selves and stands beside them as a supportive beacon of accountability.

“All I really want is to help other people. That’s why I studied sociality & inequality for years and became a journalist. It’s why I became a coach. It’s why I am here today. It’s all I’ve cared about.”

Cameron was motivated to start coaching by the evident gap in emotional support from the hundreds of people she had met, especially in a world recovering from a pandemic.

Currently residing in sun-kissed Long Beach, California, she carries the spirit of her hometown, Baltimore. When you don't see Cameron dancing to the energetic beats of hip-hop dance, she is watching the entertaining episodes of House Hunters with her three cats and partner.

Laura Garrison-Brook, MAPP, CYRC

Associate Coach / Certified Youth Resilience Coach

Laura has been studying Positive Psychology since 2015, learning first under Harvard-trained Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar and later with Dr. Martin Seligman, the founder of the field. She holds a Master’s in Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) from the University of Pennsylvania, and her passion has always been empowering teens to take charge of their own lives.


With a focus on strengths, purpose, and intrinsic motivation, Laura helps young people uncover what makes them unique and how they want to contribute to the world. Positive Psychology research shows that when we align what we’re good at, what we love, and what the world needs, engagement, resilience, and confidence naturally follow.

Blending mindfulness, self-reflection, appreciative inquiry, and somatic intelligence, Laura’s coaching supports teens in navigating the complex journey of growing up. With so many external pressures—family, friends, school, and society—it’s easy to lose sight of who you truly are. Laura’s organic conversations around values and priorities help young people connect with their most authentic selves.

 

Her approach is rooted in tested Positive Psychology practices that build self-belief and help teens recognize what’s already working in their lives. She equips them with the tools to navigate challenges and create meaningful paths forward.

 

Laura is a wife, a mom of three, a dual citizen of the U.S. and Canada, and the founder of Discovering My Purpose. A yoga teacher for 20 years, she’s also a foster mom for kittens and recently helped her son’s lemonade business get featured in Costco’s national magazine.

5⭐Rated Life Coaches

5⭐Rated Life Coaches

Committed to every unique journey.

"I was lucky enough to meet Liezel in my late teens when I was studying for a college degree that I knew wasn't right for me but felt pressured to pursue. Liezel coached me into finding the courage to stand up for myself, and choose the career path I had known all along was my true passion. What I loved most about working with Liezel was that rather than just coaching me on what to do, she saw within me what I had always known to be true and helped me find the words to say and identify the steps to take in order to take my life back into my own hands. I can't imagine how different my life would be if Liezel hadn't helped me as a teen, and I know that I am the woman I am today because her guidance empowered me to make a very difficult but life-altering decision."
