Ogomegbunam Ogbonna, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

As a dual board-certified nurse practitioner with over a decade of experience bridging physical and mental health, I believe true healing begins when patients feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. That is the standard I bring to every single visit. I am Ogo Ogbonna, a dual board-certified nurse practitioner in family practice (FNP-C) and psychiatric mental health (Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP)-BC). I started my career as a registered nurse across medical-surgical and psychiatric settings; those years taught me healing is about the whole person, not just the body. I specialize in depression, anxiety, bipolar, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), trauma, and the psychiatric impact of chronic illness, including supporting people whose unexplained physical symptoms have gone unresolved despite multiple evaluations. My dual training gives me the lens to see what others sometimes miss: the body and the mind are always in conversation.

My approach combines evidence-based psychiatric care with real human connection; medication management alone is never the whole answer. I use a collaborative, trauma-informed framework focused on root causes, not surface-level symptoms. I build relationships grounded in trust and mutual respect, because progress requires feeling safe enough to be honest. If you have been telling yourself you are too busy, too strong, or that others have it worse, I want to gently challenge that thought. Your pain is real, and you deserve the same care you give to everyone else. Healing does not require figuring everything out first. One courageous decision to show up is all it takes. I would be honored to help you get there.
