Great to meet you!

Hi there, I’m Ugochi. I’ve worked in healthcare across many different settings, including inpatient care and psychiatry. I work with teens and adults ages 13 and older, supporting clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or ADHD. I’m not currently prescribing stimulant medications.

My approach to therapy

I’m warm, supportive, and believe you deserve to feel heard and understood. I take my time with each person and never want you to feel rushed or like you’re just checking a box. Together, we can explore medication management and supportive talk therapy based on what feels most helpful for you.

What you can expect from me

Our first sessions are a chance to slow down, get to know each other, and talk through what has been feeling difficult lately. We’ll discuss your symptoms, goals, and treatment options, including whether medication management, supportive therapy, or both may be a good fit. If you haven’t been feeling like yourself or have been struggling with low energy or motivation, reach out. I’d be glad to connect and see how I can support you.
