Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Strong Foundations Pittsburgh! We have been an established psychotherapy practice since 2017, and are now expanding to include psychiatric care! We would like to introduce you to Dr. Jon Punzi, our psychiatrist. Jon has immediate openings available.

Here are a few things to know about Dr. Punzi:

  • He is a Board-Certified Psychiatrist (MD) in both Psychiatry and Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry. This means he is trained to understand how other medical conditions may create psychiatric symptoms.
  • He is personable and approachable, spending time to get to know his patients.
  • He is LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent affirming.
  • His key approach is to create a collaborative treatment plan that involves you and other mental health professionals (inside and outside of our practice).

Jon works with individuals ages 16 years and up, with a wide range of diagnoses, including but not limited to ADHD, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, OCD-spectrum disorders, trauma-related disorders, neurodevelopmental and neurocognitive disorders. Dr. Punzi is proud to create a safe space for everyone, regardless of race, disability, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

Dr. Punzi graduated Magna Cum Laude from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2013. He received his MD from Eastern Virginia Medical School in 2017. He graduated from his psychiatry residency at Virginia Commonwealth University in 2021, followed by his consultation-liaison psychiatry fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center in 2022.
