Hello and bienvenue! I work with a diverse clientele and specialize in providing social justice oriented psychotherapy to people of color, as well as members of LGBTQIA+ communities. I provide culturally responsive therapy, which focuses on the strengths that you already have. I tend to use an Interpersonal Process theoretical approach (IPT) as well as a cognitive-behavioral theoretical approach (CBT) while also paying attention to your environment and access to social support. I work with you to build a safe space where you can share your experiences without the fear of being judged, and where you can focus on becoming clear about what you want, and how you want to go about making that happen. I believe that it is important to build a strong therapeutic relationship, as well as paying close attention to what is happening for you in-the-moment. I find it helpful to work to understand the different values and beliefs that we bring into the room, and how these worldviews might affect our interactions with each other. Understanding how your thoughts are related to your behaviors can empower and help you to actively account for your reality. You can use this insight to make the changes that will be necessary to live life more healthily.

Hi! I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in helping adults who struggle with self-esteem, cultural and identity concerns, relationship issues, trauma recovery, as well as depression and anxiety.

I am Dr. Francisca Ogu, DNP, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 14 years of healthcare experience, specializing in mental health for over 6 years. I earned a Bachelor's in Nursing from Grand Canyon University Phoenix, Arizona, and advanced degrees—a Master's and Doctorate of Nursing in Psychiatric Mental Health from Walden University Minnesota. I have vast experience in managing clients and families experiencing Depression, Bipolar, Anxiety, Trauma, ADHD, Schizophrenia, and other challenges. I know how best to work with these clients and families to create a calming and trusting environment. My passion is to help my clients gain the necessary insights and skills to handle various life challenges successfully. I use the most recent advancements in medicine when treating different psychiatric disorders, and I believe in individualized, holistic, and evidence-based treatments. My vision is to improve access to quality care while embracing and investing in the mental health of individuals. TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY: I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with my clients. Every patient is unique, and I strive to understand their individual needs. My approach combines evidence-based practices like cognitive-behavioral therapy and interpersonal therapy with compassionate support. I focus on educating patients about their mental health and medication to foster self-awareness. My goal is to empower clients toward self-actualization and healing while reducing hospitalization rates. I work closely with multidisciplinary teams to create personalized treatment plans. Together, we can navigate the journey towards better mental health and improved quality of life.

I believe that each and every one of my client's has within them the power to heal themselves and change their own behavior. My purpose is to use my experience and knowledge to collaborate with you and assist in analyzing and determining patterns of learned behavior or thinking that, while understandable, haven't been working out as well as you'd like. Then, together, I will assist you in building awareness, discovering your power, and teaching you how to use your power to make your own life altering positive change. My goal for each one of my client's is not only to help, but to have each one leave my office feeling empowered. I utilize techniques and perspectives associated with cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, and humanistic therapies. Using an integrative approach, I will work with you to develop a treatment plan that pulls the most positive aspects of each theory to customize a plan that works best for your individual set of concerns. Availability: Virtual appointments available Mon-Thurs 10am-6pm. In-person appointments available Fri & Sun 12pm-6pm. If you have any questions, or just want to call to discuss if I may be the right counselor for you, please feel free to call or send me an email. Thank you.
