Young people today seem to have it all...

  • Infinite ways of connecting  
  • Technology at their fingertips 
  • More educational opportunities
  • More personal and cultural freedoms 
  • Modern day medicine with the best shot of living a long, healthy life

But the truth is that they often struggle in secret and feel:

  • Misunderstood, lost and alone
  • Out of their depth at school 
  • Chronically stressed and overwhelmed
  • Beaten down by a harsh inner-critic and self-doubt
  • Simultaneously anxious about the past, present and future
  • Unfocused, unorganized or unable to find the 'why' in what they're doing

If despite what life may look like on the outside, on the inside your child is struggling to cope, they are not alone. Young people are particularly vulnerable to psychological distress. And the truth is, how we manage our inner life, impacts everything around us. 

These years do not have to be about struggle

The good news is that thousands of teens and young adults have discovered how to break free of struggle, take care of themselves and build exciting, meaningful, happy lives. I'm Ashley, a mental health counselor and credentialed life coach in Boca Raton, Florida, passionate about equipping young people with the inner resources to turn personal challenges into opportunities for resilience. If you want to rise above your hardest challenges and take things to the next level, I am here to help.

“My sessions with Ashley were filled with a unique upbeat energy that allowed me to explore what's possible. I ended my  sessions with a sense of uplifting and eagerness to achieve.”


Michelle S.


“When I first started with Ashley I knew I wasn’t happy in my life; I felt frustrated, confused, and lost but didn’t know what I wanted. Through coaching I was able to figure that out. It was the most gratifying experience that led to significant changes.”


Tiffany D.


“Ashley creates a very effective experience that allows me to comfortably open up yet still challenges me to dig deep to find my answers. I leave each session energized and ready to act.”
