About
In therapy, I believe that words can have deeper, often surprising meanings connected to what you’re going through that you aren’t even aware of at first. It is my desire to help you uncover those connections to help you learn more about yourself.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate with a master’s degree in psychology with a clinical concentration. I have experience working with men and women struggling with anxiety, depression, family and relationship issues, and difficulties adjusting to changing life circumstances, helping them recognize the thoughts, patterns, and internal conflicts that underlie their distress.
I take a collaborative and psychodynamic approach to therapy, working with you to discuss and examine your life, problems, and relationships to help you uncover more about what’s going on within your particular situation.
It can admittedly be a scary thing to open up about yourself, but I want to give you the opportunity to talk about things you might not ordinarily get to talk about to help improve your self-awareness and potential for growth and fulfillment.

As a queer-identified man of color, I understand the unique challenges of identity exploration and intersectionality. I care for my clients with empathy, cultural awareness, and a collaborative approach, creating a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to navigate your changes and grow.
My name is Jideofor Azie. I am a compassionate mental health professional dedicated to supporting individuals through life's challenges with empathy, cultural humility, and evidence-based care. I have clinical experience working with diverse populations across a range of settings and draw from cognitive-behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, and strengths-based practices to tailor care to each individual's unique needs. I typically work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, substance use challenges, schizophrenia, ADHD, life transitions, PTSD, and relationship challenges.
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I take a holistic, patient-centered approach to assessment, medication management, and therapy. I consider biological, psychological, and social factors to tailor care to each person. Clients can expect a collaborative, respectful approach combining medication, education, therapy, and coping strategies for well-being.
I understand that reaching out can feel like a big and sometimes uncertain step, but you don't have to navigate it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported as you move toward greater balance and well-being. If you're ready to begin, I invite you to schedule an appointment—I would be honored to work alongside you.

As a dual board-certified Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience bridging physical and mental health, I believe that true healing begins when patients feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported and 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 (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 disorder, ADHD, trauma, and the psychiatric impact of chronic illness, including patients 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

As a board-certified mental health nurse practitioner, I draw on extensive clinical experience to provide evidence-based, culturally informed care tailored to each client’s unique needs.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 11 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and stress-related concerns. I offer a calm, collaborative space where you can feel respected, understood, and empowered. My approach blends evidence-based care, medication management, and compassionate dialogue to help you build clarity, strengthen stability, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from Walden University. My work integrates evidence-based psychotherapy, patient-centered collaboration, and thoughtful medication management. I help clients stabilize their mood, understand their symptoms, and develop healthier patterns through practical tools that support sustainable emotional well-being.
Reaching out for support is an act of strength, and you deserve a space where you feel heard and supported. My goal is for you to leave each session with clarity, confidence, and a greater sense of balance. When you are ready, I welcome you to schedule an appointment so we can begin this work together and take the next step toward healing and stability.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.
In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Odessa therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.
Thriveworks OCD counseling in Odessa, TX is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.
