Dr. Alyssa Rosen

Hi! Thanks so much for visiting. I am a board-certified psychiatrist who has been in practice since 2012, and before that I practiced internal medicine. I treat individuals age 10 and up in an adult setting. I went to Duke University for pre-med (BS psychology) and then Emory University School of Medicine. I did my internal medicine residency at Emory also, was on staff at Emory, and was also in private practice before I went back to my psychiatry residency (State University at Stony Brook, Chief Resident, 2012).

I bring the dual training and years of experience treating the breadth and depth of psychiatry. I enjoy helping those who have had treatment-resistant conditions, and have a friendly, kind, and collaborative approach.

I treat anyone who is motivated to get better. I manage the entire spectrum of conditions, and manage tough-to-fix things like OCD and bipolar depression. Because of my personal background, I really get the gender-divergent and neuro-divergent folks, and folks with anxiety. :).

Please note:

-Self-pay rates are $500 for intakes and $250 for follow up appointments.

-Starting 7/20/26, I am based primarily in the SF Bay area, and so appointments might seem at odd hours for those on the east coast. If the times don't align with your needs, make the first appointment and we will make follow-ups together that fits for both of us.

-Given I am primarly providing care for those in a wonderful community center in San Jose, CA, (Camara), I will see folks in this practice part-time.

-I will be in Atlanta to see patients live if needed but know it may not be more than once every 6-8 weeks. On-line is primary.

-Once settled in the Bay area, I will have a location in the west bay area for live visits. I am excited to be in an environ that allows for gender-confirming care.

-If a Florida client needs a controlled substance, one visit to the Atlanta or SF office will be necessary.

I know many who come to me are scared, nervous, or feel like you are being dragged there (teens, I see you. and I will hear you). I believe in a least amount of medicine approach, but of course, we have outstanding old, and new medications and alternative treatments today which can often be the answer. I assess and treat using a bio-psycho-social perspective (I'll explain when we are together, but suffice to say, it's not all about a pill). I incorporate therapeutic approaches as appropriate, needed, and desired (like CBT, DBT, psychodynamic and interpersonal therapies). I consider the client and I a TEAM; we work together in a fully informed fashion to get the individual to their goals. The path is discussed and decided upon TOGETHER.

A warm smile across from you and a chill let's get to know each other convo, enveloped in a no shame/no judgement zone. This will flow into a detailed analytical dive into what's brought you in, culminating in the next session with a comprehensive understanding of where the issues lie and what we're going to do to set things on a better path.
