s is a network of over 20 Psychiatric providers who trained at universities such as The Johns Hopkins Hospital, The University of Pennsylvania, Jefferson Hospital, Mount Sinai and similar institutions. We are able to provide initial psychiatric evaluations, medication management and psychotherapy for anxiety (generalized anxiety disorder and panic), mood disorders (major depressive disorder and bipolar affective disorder) and ADHD. We additionally offer neuropsychological evaluations and reports. We are a fee-for-service practice, meaning that we do not accept insurance. Patients must pay in full for their visits at the time of their appointments, and they will receive a receipt, which they can submit to their insurance company if they have out-of-network benefits. Our providers do not have admitting privileges at local psychiatric hospitals or a 24 hour emergency line, and therefore we are able to treat moderate levels of psychiatric illness safely. We are not able to schedule individuals with a history of psychosis, inpatient hospitalizations or su***de attempts, as these individuals may benefit from providers who have additional resources. The practice was founded in 2012 by Dr. Chris Pagnani, who is an Instructor at The Johns Hopkins Hospital's School of Medicine, for the department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, a supervisor of Medical Interns and Residents in Psychiatry at Jefferson Hospital, and an elected member of The Young Professionals Board, for Uplift, The Center for Grieving Children. He is the Founder and Medical Director of Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates, and maintains a private practice at our Rittenhouse location. Many of our providers teach or have taught at places such as The Johns Hopkins Hospital, The University of Pennsylvania and similar institutions. Our Therapists are trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and many have experience in teaching and/or supervisory roles. Experiences include providing state-board approval trainings for social workers, marital and family therapists, licensed counselors, and doctoral residents, training and speaking on the Recovery Oriented System of Care in collaboration with Philadelphia's DBHIDS, and Instructing at the Penn Beck Community Initiative through the University of Pennsylvania.
