"Guilty, Your Honour," Sturt told Melbourne Magistrates Court on Friday.
Ms O'Brien was found dead at her Gardenvale home by officers after they were called for a welfare check.
Sturt had previously assaulted the nurse and there was a history of violence between the pair, the court was told.
He will next appear at a directions hearing in the Supreme Court later this month.
