What is the difference between a psychiatrist and a therapist?

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and sometimes provide talk therapy. A therapist provides talk therapy to help with mental health concerns but cannot prescribe medication. Therapist titles vary and can include licensed professional counselors, social workers, and marriage and family therapists. Some people see both a psychiatrist for medication management and a therapist for ongoing talk therapy. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) are another option — they can also diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. On Headway, you can find both psychiatrists and therapists to match your needs.

What should I expect during a first psychiatry session?

A first psychiatry session typically involves a comprehensive evaluation where the provider reviews your mental health history, current concerns, and any relevant medical history. The session may last longer than follow-up visits — often 45 to 60 minutes. Based on this evaluation, your provider may discuss a diagnosis, recommend a care plan, or talk through whether medication could be a good fit. Follow-up sessions for medication management are usually shorter. On Headway, you can review a provider's bio to understand their approach before your first appointment.
