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.
I have been a counselor for more than 30 years. I remain passionate about making a difference in the lives of others and believe that genuine caring is an essential element to an effective counseling relationship. Over the years I have worked with clients with significant trauma and loss. I consider it a privilege to stand with another individual as he or she resolves great pain. I specialize in treating clients with trauma, relationship issues, and borderline personality disorder.
I'm warm, pleasant, knowledgeable, professional, efficient and approachable.
You’re smart, self-aware, and successful in many areas of life—but relationships are where you struggle.
I help clients who feel stuck in toxic or unfulfilling relationships rebuild their self-trust, break free from people-pleasing, and develop healthy boundaries—so they can start creating relationships that feel emotionally safe, respectful, and real.
Are you questioning yourself constantly, second-guessing your needs, feeling anxious when you speak up, and guilty when you say no? You may have done the inner work—but you still find yourself repeating the same patterns in love. I'm passionate about helping my clients build more fulfilling relationships.
Hi! I am a licensed clinical psychologist, offering secure virtual therapy services throughout California and Texas. I provide flexible, accessible care for busy professionals and individuals, seeking support from the comfort of home. I am working with individuals, couples, and families.
I have been a licensed psychotherapist practicing for 38 years, mostly focusing on treating depression, anxiety disorders and stress management. I work a great deal with couples as well.
You deserve care that is thoughtful, evidence-based, and deeply personalized.
My approach is collaborative and holistic. I look beyond symptoms to understand the full picture of your life - including stressors, relationships, medical history, lifestyle, and personal goals. Whether you are seeking medication management, diagnostic clarity, or a more integrative approach to healing, we will create a plan tailored specifically to you.
Clients often describe my style as compassionate, thorough, and grounded. I believe in clear communication, shared decision-making, and ensuring you feel informed and empowered about your treatment options. My goal is not simply symptom reduction - it is helping you restore balance, confidence, and a meaningful quality of life.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin, you do not have to navigate it alone. Together, we will build a path toward emotional stability, mental clarity, and overall wellness.
You may be feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or emotionally stuck - functioning on the outside while struggling internally. I work with children, adolescents, and adults dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, day to day stressors or the effects of past or ongoing stress and trauma. Many clients are thoughtful and capable but feel on edge, emotionally shut down, reactive, or unsure why things feel so hard. Parents often seek support when their child is struggling with big emotions, anxiety, mood changes, or behavior that feels confusing or concerning. Clients want relief, clarity, and to feel more steady and in control again.
I have over 12 years working with children, teens, and adults in the mental healthcare space. I have worked in numerous areas including community clinics, foster care, court systems, residential facilities, and more. I am licensed in both CA and TX and hold many certifications for therapy models.
My wide scope of practice supports children, adolescents, and adults with trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. I also help clients manage everyday overwhelm, emotional reactivity, and burnout—not just major diagnoses. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating grief, anger, relationship conflict, life transitions, and behavioral or emotional challenges.
Hi, I’m Linda Uzoukwu, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I provide compassionate, personalized psychiatric care to adults.
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, life transitions, and perinatal or postpartum mental health concerns. I understand that mental health challenges can affect every part of your life, and my goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and actively involved in your care.
Hi, I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I offer a supportive and judgment-free space to help you manage anxiety, depression, ADHD, eating disorders, and mood disorders.

Let’s walk this journey together, one step at a time.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with extensive experience in both community settings and private practice. I specialize in supporting women through the unique challenges they face in life. I offer a compassionate, empathetic approach to help women navigate anxiety, depression, struggles with identity, and the journey toward recognizing their self-worth.
