Our Pittsburgh office is located conveniently in the heart of Pittsburgh’s Central Business District, between Forbes Avenue, Grant Street and the Boulevard of the Allies (at the Corner of 3rd Ave and Grant). One Oxford Center houses many different types of businesses (from attorneys to accountants to dentists) and this provides a discreet feel for patients. The office is handicap accessible and has a restroom on site. It is convenient from public transport and parking is available as well.

When arriving for your appointment, take the elevators ACROSS from the security desk on the 1st floor (the ones that you do NOT need to check in with security to get to), to the 2nd floor.

You can have a seat, and your provider will greet you within 5-10 minutes of your appointment time.

Student Mental Health Resources: Pittsburgh

Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates has several providers with a focus specifically on College and Graduate Student Mental Health services and treatment. In addition to the emergence or worsening of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and other psychiatric disorders that can happen among individuals in their late teens and early twenties, the transition to school, academic and career decision stress, gender and orientation navigation and other challenges, can be very difficult to manage. We believe that having a diverse group of academically oriented providers, who understand these challenges, helps our providers to deliver empathic and quality psychiatric care to college and graduate students in Pittsburgh and Allegheny County.

While we do treat many students living in Pittsburgh and Allegheny County, we have included links below, to several Student Counseling Centers of local colleges and universities. We believe that this information may be helpful to individuals looking to utilize the resources provided by their institutions.

I can't recommend Rittenhouse Psych and Richard D'Amato, CRNP enough. I've been seeing him for over a year now. He is wonderful - so kind and knowledgeable. The scheduling staff is also great with any paperwork, billing, & scheduling. I was able to get in for my first appointment a few days after reaching out.

I wish I could give 10 stars. Jessica Plocher was a pleasure to work alongside in my mental health journey. I was a client of Jessica's for several years, until I moved out of state. I attribute a great deal of my progress to her support. Jessica hears you, truly. She partners with you, she's open and non judgemental. I can not say enough good things about her. I highly reccomend!
