Hello there! My name is Anjelica and I look forward to learning more about you! I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in the field. I received my BA in Psychology from Penn State and my MSW from Walden University. The majority of my experience as a young social worker came from a large community mental health agency in Ocean County, NJ. I spent a lot of time with individuals with severe and persistent mental illness (schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder, major depression, trauma, ext). One of my favorite populations to work with are the homeless. I spent years working for PATH in the community and found this work exceptionally rewarding. I also worked for a time with local police departments as the department social worker. Another population I enjoy working with is teens. My graduate internship was at a shelter for children and adolescents aged 10-19 who were homelessness or waiting for foster placement. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, and seniors in an outpatient therapeutic setting.
I am a board -certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a passion for helping individuals achieve mental wellness through personalized, evidence-based care. I earned my Masters of Science in Nursing with a specialization in psychiatry and have several years of experience working with diverse populations in both in person and tele-psychiatry settings. My clinical focus includes mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related conditions and life traditions. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard and empowered.
I've spent ten years in mental health — nine of them in the intersection of addiction and trauma — and what I've learned is that clinical tools only work when they're explained in ways people can actually use outside the therapy room.
My approach is energetic and practical: I break things down in plain language, connect them to real-life situations, and help clients build skills they can apply immediately. I work with adults on anxiety, PTSD, trauma, substance use, eating disorders, OCD, BPD, infertility, family stress, and relationship challenges.
As a Native American therapist, I bring cultural awareness and lived understanding to my work — especially for clients navigating identity, systemic barriers, and experiences that don't always fit standard clinical frameworks.
I’m Dr. Obianuju C. N. Ogbonnia-Okoye, DNP, PMHNP-BC, APN, MSN, MBA, founder of BeYou Psychiatry Associates LLC.

Frequently asked questions


Find an expert who truly understands OCD
Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Jersey City
Finding the right OCD therapist in Jersey City starts with understanding the type of care that fits your needs. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is often addressed with specialized therapeutic approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and a qualified licensed provider can help determine what approach may be appropriate for your needs. Some providers also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) or Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT). Look for a licensed provider — such as a psychologist, licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), or licensed professional counselor (LPC) — who has specific training in these approaches rather than a generalist.
Practical factors matter, too. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions in Jersey City or virtual appointments, which can make it easier to fit care into your schedule. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style, specialties, and experience with OCD before you commit. Many providers offer a free phone consultation so you can see if they're the right match.
OCD therapy in the Jersey City area can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an OCD specialist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
