Dr. Rannazzisi maintains a private practice at Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates, where he provides psychotherapy for anxiety, depression, life and career transitions, relationship distress and other challenges, at our Philadelphia office and virtually. He additionally has a focus on treating college, graduate students and young adults with ADHD, and is offering individual therapy specifically for helping patients learn skills and organizational strategies to manage their symptoms of ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). Dr. Rannazzisi has found that ADHD skills training can reduce a patient’s need for pharmacological intervention. With that said, he has also found that for moderate to severe symptoms, skills training can work very well in conjunction with other forms of treatment.

Options for Treatment:

Individual Skills Training for ADHD utilizing CBT:

Schedule an initial 60-min evaluation for individual therapy with Dr. Rannazzisi by using our contact information below. Initial evaluations are typically available within 2- 4 weeks, but tend to fill quickly at the start of fall, spring and summer academic calendars. Patients will often have an initial visit, followed by 45-minute follow-ups every 1 to 2 weeks for a total of 6 – 8 sessions. Patients then typically move to a “booster” session frequency of an appointment every 4 – 6 weeks. Booster sessions can help individuals maintain the skills that they develop, throughout their academic career and beyond. They also can create accountability for the student, to maintain long-term change. Dr. Rannazzisi treats students locally from The University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, Temple University and other colleges and universities in close proximity to our Philadelphia office. He additionally, can provide services via Telemedicine to patients living throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and others, as he is PYSPACT Certified: AL, AR, AZ, CO, CT, DE, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MD, MN, MO, NE, NJ, NV, NH, NC, OH, OK, PA TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, DC, WV & WI.
