What is the difference between a psychiatrist and a therapist?

Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and sometimes provide talk therapy. Therapists provide talk therapy for mental health concerns and may hold titles such as licensed counselor, social worker, or marriage and family therapist — but they cannot prescribe medication. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) are advanced practice nurses who can also diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. On Headway, you can find both therapists and psychiatrists to match your needs.

Do I need a referral to see a psychiatrist in Rio Rancho, NM?

It depends on your insurance plan. Some plans allow you to self-refer to a psychiatrist, while others may require a referral from a primary care physician. Check your plan details or call your insurance company to confirm whether a referral is needed before booking your first appointment.
