What is the difference between a psychiatrist and a therapist?

Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and monitor your response to it over time. Therapists provide talk therapy to help you work through mental health challenges but cannot prescribe medication. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) are another option — they can also prescribe and manage medication. On Headway, you can find both psychiatrists and therapists to match your needs.

It depends on your insurance plan. Some plans allow you to self-refer to a psychiatrist, while others require a referral from a primary care provider. Check with your insurance company to confirm whether a referral is needed before booking. If you're unsure, your primary care provider can also help determine whether psychiatric care is the right next step.
