Ms Carver is the absolute best. Prior to asking my MD for help, she referred me to Ms Carver. I was trying to keep my sanity after being out of work for 4 months. I was looking up to see the.bottom if my fee. She listened to my concerns empathize, add to my meds. I could speak to her without feeling judged. She kept me sane. Without her, the dogs and I might not be here today. I thank God for her everyday. Im still seeing her and utilize her recommendations to keep.me on track. The dogs want to thank her for getting their Mommy better.

I had my first psychiatry appointment and was nervous leading up to it, but Alissa was so kind. I didn’t feel like I had to over explain myself, and it felt like she just understood what I meant and how I was feeling. She just got it, and it felt more like a conversation rather than an interrogation or interview. I’ve been putting off seeing a psychiatrist for a long time for multiple reasons, but I’m glad I was recommended to Alissa and that I went. Thank you so much!

I have been a patient at LifeStance since 2023 and have had nothing short of a great experience. I currently see NP Alissa Carver, and she has been incredibly thoughtful and caring regarding all of my concerns. I truly appreciate her deep knowledge, her thoroughness during appointments, and her careful management of new medications. It’s a relief to work with a professional who makes you feel heard and well-cared for. Highly recommend!
