Richmond is growing fast. The mental health system has not kept pace. Telehealth bridges that gap.
Book an Appointment →Richmond has undergone a real transformation over the past decade. Young professionals are moving in. The arts district is thriving. VCU draws students and researchers from across the country. The suburbs of Henrico and Chesterfield are dense with working families, government employees, and healthcare workers who carry their own stress quietly.
What hasn't changed fast enough is access to quality outpatient psychiatric care. Psychiatrists in the Richmond area often have long waitlists. Many practices are not accepting new patients. The gap between needing care and getting it can stretch into months.
Alice Tran, PMHNP-BC provides telehealth psychiatric care for adults across the Richmond metro area, including Henrico, Chesterfield (Midlothian, Moseley), Hanover (Mechanicsville, Ashland), Goochland, and Powhatan. No commute across the city. No waiting room. Real appointments that actually happen.
The particular anxiety of a city in flux, rising costs, shifting neighborhoods, career uncertainty after major life moves. Generalized anxiety, panic attacks, and social anxiety are among the most common reasons Richmond adults seek psychiatric care.
Depression often goes unrecognized in high-functioning adults. A VCU healthcare worker, a Chesterfield parent, a Shockoe Bottom professional, depression does not care about accomplishment. It responds well to treatment, especially when caught early.
Many Richmond adults arrive at ADHD diagnoses later in life, after years of compensating with caffeine, overwork, and shame about their productivity. A proper evaluation and treatment plan changes things significantly.
VCU Medical Center nurses and staff, Henrico county teachers, state government employees, and nonprofit workers across Richmond share a common experience: giving so much to their work that they have nothing left. Burnout is a clinical condition. It deserves clinical care.
Moving to Richmond, leaving Richmond, new jobs, relationship changes, new parenthood, grief. Transitions, even good ones, carry weight. Supportive psychiatric care helps people move through change rather than get stuck in it.
Postpartum depression and anxiety affect a significant portion of new mothers and are frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated. Alice provides evaluation and medication management for perinatal and postpartum mental health for families across Central Virginia.
As a telehealth practice, Alice sees patients from any location in Virginia. Central Virginia communities she frequently serves:
Yes. The best way to check current availability is to view the online booking calendar directly. If you don't see a time that works, reach out by phone or email, there are often cancellations.
See Rates & Insurance for most updated in network insurances and current fees.
Yes. Virginia law allows licensed providers to prescribe psychiatric medication via telehealth, including stimulant medications for ADHD under applicable guidelines. Everything is handled through your appointment, no separate in-person visit required.
Research consistently shows that telehealth psychiatric care produces comparable outcomes to in-person care for the vast majority of conditions. For medication management and supportive therapy, the quality of the conversation is what matters, and many patients find they're more open in their own space.
