About Obinna
Obinna Onyegesi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with three years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBT concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and Italian. Obinna uses a collaborative approach that pays attention to a client's background and identity.
He prioritizes straightforward conversation about what is happening now. He listens for how relationships, identity, and past losses affect daily routines and mood. When substance use is present he looks at patterns and practical steps that reduce harm and improve functioning.
Obinna addresses attachment and abandonment concerns by helping people notice how early relationships shape current reactions. He works through communication problems and issues tied to dependent personality with clear behavioral tasks and role practice. For people dealing with gender dysphoria, HIV or immigration stress he attends to the practical and emotional challenges those situations bring.
Sessions often include short-term techniques for anxiety and depression alongside longer work on identity and life purpose. He uses plain language and concrete goals rather than abstract theories. Progress is tracked with tasks you can try between meetings.

That work looks at triggers, coping routines, and practical changes to reduce distress and improve functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Decisions about focus and techniques are reviewed together as progress is made.
