About Ashley
Ashley Toledo is a bilingual psychiatric nurse practitioner who sees patients from age 10 through older adulthood at the Fort Lauderdale office, in English or Spanish. She completed her nursing degree at Florida International University and a Master of Science in Nursing in psychiatric mental health at St. Thomas University. Before that she worked as a pediatric psychiatric nurse.
Her move to psychiatry came during the pandemic, when bedside nursing showed her how much emotional strain slowed physical recovery. Toledo now treats the full range of emotional challenges, with a strong foundation in coping skills: she wants patients, and especially younger patients, to build the capacity to handle stress rather than rely on medication alone. Her pediatric psychiatric background makes her comfortable with children and teens and with the parents navigating care alongside them.
She takes an empathetic, whole-person approach and sees patients in Spanish as well as English, which matters in Broward County, where many families prefer to discuss emotional health in their first language. She is accepting new patients, and the Stirling Road office is convenient to Hollywood, Davie, Pembroke Pines, and Plantation from I-95, I-595, and State Road 7.
