Hi, and welcome! I am Joy Nnebe, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I am thrilled you’re considering working with me.
I have 8 years of experience in psychiatric/mental health nursing, and I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, insomnia, trauma, and more, using approaches like CBT therapy and trauma-informed care. I aim to provide simple, non-judgmental, supportive, and personalized care to help you feel understood and empowered on your mental health journey.
I’m passionate about helping those who need help mentally and emotionally
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. I work closely with my clients to understand their unique goals, and I tailor my approach to meet those needs. I am trained in a variety of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I have a specialty in Art Therapy. I often maintain a family systems perspective when providing treatment, as our families of origin play an instrumental role in our behavior patterns.
I'm an open minded individual and welcome any topics in treatment
For the past year, I've worked with adults facing serious mental health challenges at one of Los Angeles's largest public health systems, and what I've learned is that lasting change comes from relationships built on trust. Now I'm bringing that experience into private practice, where I can focus on what matters most: your individual progress. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, and PTSD, and I offer flexible evening and weekend availability via telehealth throughout California. As a PMHNP, I'm here to support your whole mental health journey.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Sonoma County with six years of clinical experience working with young people and families. I've worked across a range of settings including intensive residential treatment, county behavioral health, and outpatient care, and I bring that breadth of experience into my private practice. I specialize in working with preteens, teens, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, identity, family conflict, and life transitions. I also work with couples on a private pay basis.
As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and empowering to individuals of all ages. I have 8 years of experience in the field in working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating through depression, anxiety, and everyday life stressors. I am passionate about supporting individuals through my multi-modal therapeutic approach which integrates CBT and solution-focused, reality-based strategies to support emotional regulation, self-awareness, and meaningful change.
I’m a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with clients across the lifespan. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from the University of Arizona and have experience caring for individuals in outpatient, intensive outpatient, and higher-acuity mental health settings. My background includes treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, OCD, mood disorders, and substance use. I take a thoughtful, practical, and individualized approach to care, with the goal of helping clients feel understood, safe, supported, and comfortable being honest when feeling emotionally vulnerable.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Stockton, CA
Finding OCD therapists in Stockton starts with knowing what to look for in a therapist’s training and approach. Obsessive-compulsive disorder can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, contamination fears, checking, ordering, reassurance seeking, or anxiety tied to specific obsessions. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a commonly used therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for profiles that specifically mention ERP, OCD, obsessive thoughts, compulsions, or related anxiety concerns.
Stockton has a range of mental health care options, though the number of local OCD specialized therapists may vary by availability and insurance. Virtual appointments can expand your options if you want to work with an ERP therapist near you while keeping scheduling flexible. It also helps to compare whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers a free phone consultation, and lists OCD-specific experience beyond a general anxiety focus. Reading therapist bios can help you see whether they describe ERP training, session structure, and experience supporting people with obsessive thoughts and compulsions.
Therapy in Stockton can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer direct booking. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, then review bios and schedule a free consultation when you’re ready.
