At Evoke Wellness Coconut Creek, our entire team is dedicated to our patients. Our primary mission is to evoke healing and wellness through proven therapy for you or your loved one in recovery. The Evoke Wellness Coconut Creek staff ensures that your individual needs are met, and the best possible treatment is provided for the best possible outcome.
While the Evoke Wellness at Miramar staff includes licensed physicians and nurses, that is only the tip of the iceberg. Our team consists of a wide range of behavioral health professionals who are there to help you pave the road to recovery. Psychiatrists, therapists, counselors, and other medical professionals have come together to set the course for recovery.
Many of our staff have gone through recovery themselves, and as a result, they have devoted themselves to helping you on your journey. To get started with our great team, call Evoke Wellness Coconut Creek at 866.693.3871.
Pastel Kendrick
Director of Nursing
Pastel attended Keiser Institute and graduated in 2011. After graduation, she began working at Fort Lauderdale Hospital as a Licensed Practical Nurse. While at the Keiser Institute, her work ethic and leadership skills were recognized. She was honored to receive the Employee of The Year award in 2015.
Although she enjoyed her position as an LPN, Pastel always dreamed of playing a more integral role as a leader in healthcare. She would often reflect on her personal experiences to encourage her to achieve her goal. Pastel assisted her mother in the daily care of her maternal grandmother. This experience has had a huge impact on Pastel’s passion for helping others in need. The love she felt when caring for her grandmother has helped her become a more compassionate nurse and patient advocate.
Pastel began working at Evoke Wellness in 2018 while she continued her education. She graduated with an Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) degree from Southeastern College (2020). After ten years of experience and gaining knowledge on substance use disorders, Pastel’s dream was fulfilled. She was promoted to Director of Nursing at Evoke Wellness. Pastel continues to be a dedicated leader by maintaining effective relationships with staff and improving the quality of care for all patients.
In her free time, Pastel enjoys traveling, watching professional basketball games, and spending time with family and friends.

Jonathan Stiglich
Clinical Supervisor
Jonathan was born in Lima, Peru, and came to the US (South Florida) at the age of 7 where he grew up. He was always interested and curious about people and how their minds worked, especially how families interacted behind closed doors. So, he made the decision to become a therapist at the age of 12. He is a licensed Marriage & Family therapist. He is worked with addictions for about 13 years.
Jonathan loves what he does because there is simply nothing more rewarding than empowering people, so they can change themselves to live a healthier and more fulfilling life. Evoke Wellness has given him the opportunity to Clinically lead in their new location, Coconut Creek. “This location is by far the best environment for therapy, not to mention we have Horses on the property, that offer Equine therapy. I have also talked with other staff, and they seem happy, as well as informed me of the opportunity to grow within the company. I also met with the higher-ups and instantly liked them.
