ASHLEE CARBONARO, M.ED., NBC-HWC
Hi, I’m Ashlee — a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Mental Health Coach and Behavioral Coach, and lifelong advocate for helping young people feel seen, understood, and empowered. My work is rooted in the belief that every teen and young adult deserves a safe space to talk openly about their mental and emotional world, build confidence, and learn the tools they need to navigate life with resilience.
I specialize in mental health coaching for teens and young adults who are facing challenges like anxiety, stress, executive functioning struggles, motivation issues, school pressure, life transitions, and difficulty managing emotions. Through a trauma-informed, strengths-based, and highly collaborative approach, I help clients explore what’s getting in the way, set meaningful goals, and build practical, real-life skills such as emotional regulation, self-advocacy, communication, organization, and mindset shifts.
My coaching is not therapy — it’s an action-oriented space designed to support growth, confidence, and forward movement. I work alongside my clients (and when appropriate, their caregivers or care teams) to create personalized plans that fit their needs, values, and lifestyle. Whether it’s navigating academic overwhelm, managing daily stress, improving routines, developing healthier habits, or making sense of big emotions, I walk with young people as they gain the tools to lead their lives with intention.
