Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in San Luis Obispo, CA

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Aurora, and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

As you begin your therapy journey, I’d love to share a little about my therapeutic style so you can get a sense of who I am and whether we might be a good clinical fit.

As a Latina therapist, I believe culture plays an important role in the therapy room. Our cultural backgrounds, family experiences, relationships, and identities can all shape the way we understand ourselves and navigate the world. Both my personal and professional experiences have deeply influenced my approach to therapy.

I especially enjoy working with individuals and families navigating multigenerational patterns, family dynamics, and trauma. My goal is to create a warm, compassionate, and culturally responsive space where you feel seen, understood, and supported as you work toward meaningful change.

I'm a fully licensed LCSW based in California, and I'm easing back into practice after taking time away for my health. I work best with clients looking for shorter-term, focused support rather than long, open-ended treatment. I know what it's like to face real-life challenges, and I bring genuine warmth and honesty to every session.

Therapy is a place to be yourself, without judgement, feel safe, heard and understood. I take a client centered, collaborative, trauma informed approach to the work.

Helping people find joy and meaning in their lives is my biggest passion in my work. However, life has its difficulties, including painful experiences, and when you need help solving what is in the way of getting from one day to the next or pursuing dreams, I want to help you figure out what is happening and help you develop tools to empower you to manage what seemed impossible and to create the life you desire.

My goal with therapy is to provide a safe and open space to process and prioritize a growth mindset. I tailor my therapeutic approach to best match the needs of the client and truly believe in promoting acceptance. Some modalities I have experience with and may incorporate into therapy are Acceptance Compassion Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused, Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Here-and-now Counseling, Trauma-Informed, and Holistic. I have a passion for working with individuals who are looking to unpack complex emotions and experiences that have shaped their understanding of the world.

I’m Chinenye Udoh, MSN, PMHNP-BC, FNP-C, a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. I work with adolescents and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma-related concerns, schizophrenia, and other mental health challenges.

Many of the people I work with have spent years knowing that something doesn’t feel quite right but struggling to put it into words. You may be having difficulty focusing or completing tasks, experiencing overwhelming anxiety, struggling with motivation, noticing significant changes in your mood, or simply feeling exhausted from trying to manage everything on your own. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard rather than judged and understood rather than rushed.
