Dr. Robert F. Alessi, MD

Dr. Robert F. Alessi, MD

Psychiatrist
TN
Born and raised in New York City. Graduated from Loyola Stritch School of Medicine. Received my Psychiatric Residency training at Columbia and Cornell. Thereafter, I was a Clinical Professor at NYU. In additional, I have had the privilege of working in New York, Virginia, and California in Senior Management positions and as provider of behavioral health care. I have extensive clinical expertise in psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, and the interface between medical and surgical pathology with behavioral health disorders. My clinical focus emphasizes a comprehensive approach in working with adolescents, adults, and with emphasis upon kindness and compassion. This practice style includes mindfulness strategies, nutritional health, exercise programs and a healthy, balanced lifestyle. My longstanding purpose in life is one of helping others which also includes continuous learning and sharing this knowledge and wisdom with others. Interests include love of nature, hiking, physical fitness, baseball, tennis, rescue dogs and, most importantly, my family and friends.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
