Funmi Igbinigie
Taking the first step toward mental health care can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. I'm Funmi Igbinigie, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of Oasis of Wellness Mental Health Nursing Corporation. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care to adults throughout California via telehealth. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, panic disorder, OCD, insomnia, and other mood-related conditions. I also have experience supporting individuals navigating life transitions, work-related stress, relationship challenges, and burnout.
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and stress-related challenges across life span.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and personalized. I believe the best outcomes come from truly listening to each person's story and developing a treatment plan that reflects their goals, values, and lifestyle. When appropriate, I combine medication management with supportive therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)-informed strategies, psychoeducation, and practical coping skills to help clients experience meaningful, lasting improvement. Whether you're struggling with persistent symptoms, feeling emotionally overwhelmed, or simply looking for a provider who will listen without judgment, I'm here to support you. My goal is to help you gain clarity, build resilience, and improve your overall quality of life one step at a time. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and wellness.
First session
Your first appointment is all about getting to know you in a comfortable, supportive, and judgment-free environment. My priority is to understand your concerns, learn about your personal history, and identify what you hope to achieve through treatment. You can expect a thoughtful conversation where you have the time and space to share your experiences at your own pace. During our session, we'll complete a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation by discussing your current symptoms, medical and mental health history, previous treatments, medications, lifestyle, and any factors that may be affecting your emotional well-being. Together, we'll explore your strengths, address any questions or concerns, and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs. If medication is appropriate, we'll review your options, including the benefits, potential side effects, and answer any questions so you can make informed decisions about your care. My goal is for you to leave your first session feeling heard, respected, and hopeful with a clear understanding of the next steps and confidence that we're working together toward your mental health goals. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, mood changes, or other mental health concerns, I'm committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care every step of the way.
Strengths
I believe that effective mental health care starts with building a genuine, trusting relationship. My clients often describe me as compassionate, approachable, and attentive. I take the time to listen carefully, understand your unique experiences, and ensure you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in every treatment decision. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with supportive therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)-informed techniques, psychoeducation, and practical coping strategies. Rather than simply prescribing medication, I focus on understanding the whole person your lifestyle, relationships, stressors, strengths, and goals to create a personalized treatment plan that supports long-term wellness. I have experience treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, panic disorder, OCD, insomnia, and other mood-related conditions. I also recognize that mental health affects every aspect of life, including work, family, relationships, and overall well-being. My goal is to help you not only reduce symptoms but also build resilience, regain confidence, and improve your quality of life. I strive to create a welcoming, culturally sensitive, and judgment-free space where clients from diverse backgrounds feel safe discussing their concerns. Together, we'll develop realistic, achievable goals and celebrate progress along the way. Whether you're seeking care for the first time or returning to treatment, you can expect compassionate, collaborative, and high-quality care focused on helping you thrive.
Ideal clients
I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and treatment for a wide range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD, and substance use disorders across the lifespan. I work best with individuals who are open to a collaborative and personalized treatment approach, which may include medication management, therapeutic support, and practical coping strategies. Together, we focus on reducing symptoms, building emotional resilience, and improving overall quality of life and daily functioning.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT operates on the premise that our thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors. By identifying and challenging negative or distorted thinking patterns, individuals can experience improvements in how they feel and act. In practice, CBT is structured and goal-oriented, focusing on the present rather than delving into the past.
Christian Counseling
Christian counseling integrates faith-based principles with traditional therapeutic techniques to provide holistic healing. The aim is to help individuals find healing, guidance, and growth by addressing emotional, mental, and spiritual issues, all while grounding the therapy in biblical teachings and Christian values.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
Culturally sensitive therapy helps to emphasize understanding and respecting a person's cultural background, values, and experiences while providing treatment. The goal is to create a therapeutic environment that feels safe, inclusive, and responsive to the unique cultural needs of each individual.
