Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Miami Beach, FL

I'm Astrid, a dedicated nurse practitioner with over 18 years of healthcare experience, including over 7 years in mental health, presently welcoming clients in FLORIDA and COLORADO.

I believe everyone deserves care that respects their entire being and honors the uniqueness of their life story.

My mission is to create a supportive and healing environment where mental health is approached holistically in a safe and judgment-free environment.

I am deeply committed to supporting individuals, especially women across the lifespan, from puberty and postpartum to perimenopause and beyond, as they navigate challenges, reclaim their power, and thrive.

Welcome. I'm so glad you're here.

I believe that healing begins the moment you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted. Seeking support is a courageous step, and my goal is to provide a warm, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you can feel safe to explore your experiences, overcome life's challenges, and reconnect with your authentic self.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida and the founder of Self Creation Holistic Counseling & Wellness. I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University and have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds. I have supported individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, grief, low self-esteem, and substance use concerns.

I believe that every person has the ability to grow, heal, and create meaningful change, regardless of where they are in their journey. Therapy is not about changing who you are—it is about discovering your strengths, developing healthier ways of coping, and building a life that feels more balanced, peaceful, and fulfilling.

At Self Creation, I believe that true transformation comes from learning to care for yourself with compassion while embracing your ability to evolve. Whether you are facing a difficult season, working through past experiences, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

My hope is that every session leaves you feeling more empowered and one step closer to becoming the person you were always meant to be.

Hi, I’m Maikel Echemendia, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner serving patients in Florida through both in-person and telehealth appointments. I specialize in helping adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, insomnia, panic symptoms, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, and life stressors. My approach is warm, supportive, and practical. I believe patients should feel heard, respected, and understood—not judged. Many people come to treatment feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, or stuck, and my goal is to help them regain stability, clarity, and confidence in their daily lives.

I am a compassionate psychiatrist dedicated to caring for patients of all ages. My goal is to help each patient feel comfortable, supported, and truly heard during every visit. I am fluent in English and Spanish, and I take pride in working with diverse patient populations while providing attentive, patient centered mental health care

I'm Jeanette, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and co-founder of Full Time Human here in Davie, Florida. I work with individuals, couples, and families, and I run the practice alongside my mother, Doris, so I bring both clinical training and real lived experience in how families work. My focus is helping families through hard moments, whether that's a rough patch between partners, a struggling teen, or a household that just feels out of sync.

“I want you to know that I’m here to support you with you with warmth and honesty. I’ll listen deeply, but I’ll also be directwhen it helps. You move forward. I’d believe I’m working towards real practical solutions so you’ll always feel heard, and we’ll take steps that make a difference in your life.“

Population focus is children, teens, young and middle-aged adults.

As a PMHNP, my goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to take an active role in your mental health. I approach care with curiosity, compassion, and a commitment to collaborative decision-making. No two clients are the same, so my treatment plans are individualized and shaped by your experiences, values, and goals.

I know reaching out for help isn’t always easy. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, feeling overwhelmed, or simply not feeling like yourself, my goal is to provide a space where you feel comfortable being honest about what you’re going through.

I believe people do best when they feel genuinely heard and understood. I take the time to listen, answer questions, and work with you to find solutions that fit your life. My focus is helping you feel better, function better, and get back to being the version of yourself you want to be.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist offering therapy for children, teens, and their caregivers. I have over 9 years of experience working with youth and families on issues such as child depression, anxiety, trauma, and behavioral problems. I earned my PhD in Clinical-Community Psychology from the University of South Carolina. I completed a pre-doctoral internship and post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Miami (UM) Mailman Center for Child Development, where I specialized in pediatric psychology, primarily working in school-based primary care clinics with middle and high-school students. In addition to years of academic and clinical training, I am also the mother of a toddler. Being a parent myself has deepened my understanding and empathy for the families with whom I work.
