Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Pembroke Pines, FL

If you've been living with constant worry, panic attacks, or the lingering effects of difficult experiences, you may feel exhausted from always being on alert. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, disconnected from themselves, or stuck in patterns they no longer want to repeat. You don't have to continue carrying it all on your own.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, panic disorders, family stress, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered. Together, we'll explore the experiences and patterns contributing to your struggles while building practical tools that help you feel more grounded, confident, and capable in everyday life.

If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and more, we are here to support you. Seeking help and opening up to someone new can be intimidating, but it's a brave step towards healing. I understand the importance of a supportive and personalized approach, which enables me to offer effective treatment plans tailored to your unique circumstances. I treat a variety of mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep disorders, postpartum depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, OCD, among others. My extensive experience in a variety of mental health settings has equipped me to address both common and complex mental health needs with compassion and expertise.

My clients seek to understand and accept themselves and their life experiences. Together we will explore how your past is impacting your present, so you can ultimately move toward a better future.

I work with individuals, couples and families from an attachment and systems perspective, knowing we experience many wounds through relationships but through the right relationships we can also experience healing.

It is important in my work that I allow the client's cultural context inform my treatment.

I provide a comfortable and supportive environment in which we explore stressors, thought patterns and feelings that may be contributing to your challenges. Through a strong therapeutic relationship based on respect and empowerment, we will work together to resolve the challenges you are facing and to develop goals deemed most useful in moving you forward to a positive outcome.

Hi, I'm Lizandra, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and U.S. Air Force Veteran providing therapy to adolescents and adults throughout Florida in both English and Spanish.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or major life transitions, I'm here to help you navigate those experiences with compassion and practical tools for lasting change.

As both a therapist and veteran, I understand how life's experiences can shape the way we think, feel, and connect with others. I have a special interest in working with veterans, first responders, and individuals recovering from trauma, while also supporting women who are learning to heal, build confidence, establish healthy boundaries, and reconnect with themselves.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I use evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), DBT-informed interventions, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I have completed EMDRIA-approved EMDR training and am currently completing my consultation hours.

I know reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, and you don't have to have everything figured out before getting started. My goal is to help you feel safe, supported, and empowered as we work together to create meaningful, lasting change so you can move forward with greater confidence, resilience, and hope.
