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.
I am a board-certified nurse practitioner with many years of experience in healthcare, including primary care, psychiatric mental health, leadership, and wellness-based practice. My background has allowed me to work with individuals facing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and medical concerns, and I understand how closely mental health and physical health are connected.
Great to meet you! I'm Ryan Carr, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with adolescents and adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, and psychotic disorders. My background includes years of psychiatric nursing in both inpatient and outpatient settings, caring for individuals with a wide range of mental health needs. I believe the best treatment starts with feeling heard, respected, and involved in your care. Together, we'll create a personalized plan focused on helping you feel better and achieve your goals.
I’m Linh Tran, a psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 10 years in healthcare and 5 years in advanced practice. I hold both a Master’s and Doctor of Nursing Practice from Columbia University. My work focuses on anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, and eating disorders. I’m especially passionate about supporting adolescents, adults, and those navigating the immigrant or bicultural experience.
My patients can expect me to be warm, empathetic, and genuinely interested in their story. I take time to understand not just current struggles, but also personal history and experiences that have shaped who they are. I believe that mental health is deeply connected to overall health, and treating psychiatric conditions can positively impact all areas of life. I work with all patients and conditions, and I always meet people where they are. If someone isn’t ready for medications, I fully support their choice and will be there to provide guidance, education, and care until the time feels right for them. Above all, I listen, I value each person’s perspective, and I aim to create a safe space where patients feel truly heard.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Los Angeles
Finding psychiatrists in Los Angeles starts with knowing what type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Psychiatric nurse practitioners may also prescribe and manage medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy and support. If you are looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, background, and approach before booking.
In a large city like Los Angeles, having many options across neighborhoods like Downtown LA, Santa Monica, Silver Lake, and the Valley can make it harder to narrow your search. Consider practical factors like appointment availability, office location, commute time, and whether virtual appointments fit your schedule. Psychiatric care may involve shorter, less frequent medication management appointments than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading bios can help you understand how each psychiatrist communicates, what conditions they focus on, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Los Angeles can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and take your plan. You can compare profiles, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
