Getting to know Ugochi Okonko
Ugochi Okonko, PMHNP-BC
Healthy Minds in Harmony LLC | Telepsychiatry | Nevada & Connecticut
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) licensed in California, Nevada, and Connecticut, specializing in medication management, psychiatric evaluation, and comprehensive mental health care — all delivered via telehealth from the comfort of your home.
I founded Healthy Minds in Harmony LLC with a simple belief: that high-quality psychiatric care should be accessible, compassionate, and built around you. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, sleep disturbances, or complex psychiatric conditions, I am here to partner with you on your path to wellness.

• A thorough psychiatric evaluation tailored to your history and goals
• Evidence-based medication management
• Clear, open communication — you will always understand your care plan

I welcome adults across Nevada and Connecticut, including those with complex psychiatric and medical needs who have struggled to find consistent, high-quality care. I currently have availability for new patients and offer prompt scheduling.

What should a new client know about working with you?
First and foremost — you are safe here. My practice is a judgment-free space where your story, your struggles, and your goals are treated with the utmost respect and compassion.
I take a holistic, individualized approach to care, meaning I don't believe in one-size-fits-all treatment. I take time to truly understand you — your biology, your life experiences, your environment, and your goals — before we build a plan together. Every treatment plan is uniquely yours.
My care is grounded in the biopsychosocial model, which means I look beyond symptoms to address the full picture of your mental health — integrating medication management, therapeutic strategies, and lifestyle factors to support lasting wellness.
You can expect me to be warm, direct, and collaborative. I'll always explain your options clearly, answer your questions honestly, and walk alongside you at whatever pace feels right. You are an active partner in your own healing — not just a patient on a chart.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, ADHD, or a complex psychiatric history, I bring board-certified expertise across multiple states with a genuine passion for seeing people thrive.
Booking your first appointment is a brave and powerful step. I'm honored to be part of your journey toward a healthier, more balanced life.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My process always begins with you. Before anything else, I take time to genuinely get to know you — your history, your experiences, what's brought you here, and most importantly, what you're hoping to achieve. Building trust and rapport isn't just a first step for me; it's the foundation of everything we do together.
From there, we collaborate. I believe the best outcomes happen when clients feel like active partners in their care, not passive recipients of a diagnosis. Your voice matters in every decision we make.
Together, we'll explore your needs holistically — looking at the full picture of your mental, emotional, and physical well-being — and from there, craft a personalized plan that truly fits your life. As we move forward, I check in regularly to make sure the plan is working for you and adjust as needed, because your needs may evolve and your care should too.
My goal is simple: for every client to leave each appointment feeling heard, supported, and one step closer to the life they want.
