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
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

It is absolutely worth going to therapy for depression — depression counseling helps people better manage their symptoms and get back to living happier lives again.
Depression counseling works by helping people pinpoint life problems, distorted thought patterns, and other causes of their depression, then process and work through them in order to mitigate the negative effects those factors have on their lives.
Common signs of depression include:

Depression comes in a few different forms, and depending on what type a person is diagnosed with, treatments can vary. For example:
A depression counselor or a psychiatric NP at Thriveworks in Conroe, TX will perform a full evaluation to diagnose a client and determine what kind of treatment will be most effective. But treatments can always be modified depending on client feedback and results. For example, if a Thriveworks psychiatric NP prescribes an antidepressant or another medication to a depressed client, that doctor will want to follow up frequently, at least at first, to manage the medication’s dose and make sure there are no adverse side effects.
Though there are different varieties of depression, they share certain symptoms in common. A person with depression may experience any of the following:
It’s always best to intervene early, at the first signs of depression, to get the most effective treatment and prevent further depression symptoms.
Licensed psychiatric NPs at Thriveworks in Conroe, TX may consider any of the following pharmaceutical treatments for depression:
