Hi there! I'm glad you found your way here.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just plain exhausted, you are not alone. A lot of the

people I work with describe a similar experience: on the surface, life looks manageable, but

internally, it is a different story. Thoughts that won't quiet down, energy that's hard to find, or

stress from past experiences that never quite resolved themselves.

You don't have to keep carrying that on your own.

I work with patients navigating a wide range of mental challenges, from anxiety, ADHD,

depression, and mood disorders to trauma, life transitions, burnout, and beyond. My goal is

straightforward: to help you feel more like yourself again, and more in control of your day-to-day life.

I have a very mellow, approachable style, and my main goal is to help my patients reach their goals. Many of the people I work with feel like they haven’t been truly heard before, or that medication was presented as their only option. I take time to listen and make sure you feel comfortable, understood, and involved in your care. I also grew up in an immigrant household, where mental health wasn’t always talked about or seen as an option, and that experience really shaped how I work with my patients today.

Dr. Ben-DNP, Pmhnp-Bc Osevwe

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Pearland, TX


Welcome! I'm Dr. Ben Osevwe, a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 22 years of experience in mental health care, including over 4.5 years as a PMHNP. I founded Solid Foundation Psychiatry with one mission: to provide compassionate, evidence-based, and personalized psychiatric care that empowers individuals to live healthier, more fulfilling lives.

I work with adolescents and adults ages 12 through 90, providing comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive psychotherapy. I believe that effective mental health treatment goes beyond prescribing medication. Every visit is an opportunity to listen, educate, collaborate, and develop a treatment plan that reflects your unique goals, values, and life circumstances.

My clinical interests include ADHD, depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, autism spectrum disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), insomnia, mood disorders, and other psychiatric conditions. Whether you're seeking help for the first time or have struggled with symptoms for years, I strive to create a safe, respectful, and judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable sharing your concerns.

I provide both in-person psychiatric care in Pearland, Texas, serving the greater Houston area, and telepsychiatry to patients in states where I am licensed. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with psychotherapy and lifestyle recommendations.

My philosophy is simple: Every person deserves to be heard, treated with dignity, and given the tools to thrive. I believe healing begins with a trusting relationship, open communication, and a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.

It is a privilege to be part of your mental health journey, and I look forward to partnering with you to help you build resilience, restore hope, and achieve lasting emotional wellness.

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 Psychiatrist in Odessa, TX

Finding psychiatrists in Odessa starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management may be part of care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a prescriber, and some work with both. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want support with.

Odessa is a smaller market, so local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Texas cities. Virtual psychiatry can expand your choices while still giving you access to licensed psychiatrists who fit your schedule and needs. Psychiatric medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s bio for details on availability, session format, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Psychiatric care in Odessa can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce out-of-pocket costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your preferences, are accepting new patients, and take your insurance. You can enter your insurance details, see your estimated session cost before booking, review psychiatrist profiles, 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.
