If you live or work around Fair Oaks, real psychiatric care is closer than you think: Alice Tran’s office sits about ten minutes away in Merrifield, with free parking, and every service is also available by secure video.
Book an Appointment →Fair Oaks sits at the crossroads of Fairfax County: the mall and its orbit of offices, Inova Fair Oaks Hospital, Fair Lakes’ corporate campuses, and neighborhoods full of families running on I-66 and Route 50 schedules. Most of this website talks about telehealth, but for Fair Oaks residents the calculus flips: the office at 3060 Williams Drive in Merrifield is roughly a ten-minute drive, which makes fully in-person psychiatric care a realistic first choice.
The people who come from the Fair Oaks area look like the area itself: healthcare workers from Inova Fair Oaks who spend their days caring for everyone else; professionals from the Fair Lakes corridor carrying quiet, high-functioning anxiety; parents juggling two careers and a school calendar; and a wide mix of immigrant families, including many Vietnamese and Korean households, for whom care in their own language changes everything.
Alice Tran is a dual board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC, FNP-BC), trained under a psychiatrist with more than fifty years of experience. She treats adults 18 to 65 for anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, insomnia, and burnout, offering psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive psychotherapy in English and Tiếng Việt.
You choose the format visit by visit: in person at the office, with free parking and no hospital-campus maze, or secure telehealth from home or work. Most major insurance is accepted, including Aetna, Anthem, Cigna, Medicare, and Medicaid, and new patients are usually seen within one to two weeks.

Whether you come to the office or join by video, the first appointment is a full psychiatric evaluation, about an hour: your story, sleep, mood, focus, health history, and goals, explored in an unhurried conversation. Bring your medication list and insurance card; prior records help but are not required.
You leave with an initial diagnosis explained plainly and a plan you helped shape. Prescriptions are sent electronically to your pharmacy, whether that is at Fair Oaks Mall, Fairfax Towne Center, or anywhere else, and your first follow-up is set for two to four weeks out.
Alice manages the complete range of psychiatric medications: antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, ADHD stimulants and non-stimulants, mood stabilizers, and sleep medications. Because the office is genuinely nearby, Fair Oaks patients can mix in-person medication reviews with video follow-ups however life dictates.
Expect plain-language explanations, deliberate dose adjustments based on how you actually respond, and a standing invitation to report side effects early rather than toughing them out until the next visit.
Appointments include supportive psychotherapy: practical work on the stress, thought loops, and habits underneath the symptoms. For many patients, this integrated care, medication and meaningful conversation with one clinician, is the right fit without adding a separate weekly commitment.
When structured therapy would add value, Alice refers to well-matched therapists nearby, including Vietnamese-speaking options, and coordinates care with them directly.
