Oghenesume Umugbe

Oghenesume Umugbe

Psychiatrist

Virtual • Rancho Cucamonga, CA


Hi, I'm Dr. Umugbe — and I'm here to help you make sense of what you're going through.

I'm a board-certified General, Child, and Adolescent Psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience helping children, teens, and adults navigate some of the most challenging mental health conditions out there — psychotic disorders, ADHD, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and more. I see patients via telehealth and also offer in-person visits in Rancho Cucamonga, CA.

Two decades in this field has taught me one thing above everything else: the best care starts with truly knowing the person in front of you. Not just their diagnosis — their story, their symptoms, how long they've been carrying this, and how it's affecting their daily life. That's always where I begin.

Stephanie Larsen

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Los Angeles, CA


If you’ve ever felt rushed through an appointment, left with a prescription you didn’t fully understand, or wondered whether anyone was looking at the whole picture, I take a different approach.

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I’m thoughtful and thorough, but also down-to-earth. I want you to understand what I’m thinking, feel comfortable asking questions, and have a real say in your treatment.

My clinical interests include women’s mental health, ADHD, anxiety, depression, PMDD, and reproductive mental health. As a first-generation Afro-Latina, I also value working with people navigating cultural expectations, family roles, and the pressure of being the one who holds everything together.
