Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Pembroke Pines, 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.

I’m Tiffany Ward, LMHC, CBT-C, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Clinician. I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, mood-related concerns, life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, and emotional difficulties.

As a Certified CBT Clinician (CBT-C), I specialize in helping clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, understand how their thoughts impact their emotions and behaviors, and develop practical skills that support lasting change. My approach is supportive, direct, and empowering, using evidence-based interventions including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to strengthen emotional regulation, coping skills, confidence, and overall well-being.

As a former Division I collegiate athlete, I also understand the unique pressures associated with athletics and performance. I enjoy supporting athletes and high-performing individuals experiencing performance anxiety, confidence concerns, stress, perfectionism, and the pressure to succeed.

For clients who desire it, I offer Christian counseling that integrates faith, biblical principles, and evidence-based therapeutic interventions. Faith integration is always based on each client’s preference and comfort level.

My goal is not simply to help you manage symptoms, but to help you understand the patterns keeping you stuck, develop the tools to move forward, and feel empowered to conquer the mountains in front of you.
