A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and monitor your response to treatment over time. A therapist provides talk therapy to help you work through mental health challenges, but most therapists cannot prescribe medication. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) are another type of provider who can prescribe and manage medication. Some people see both a prescribing provider and a therapist at the same time. On Headway, you can find both psychiatrists and therapists covered by your insurance.

It depends on your insurance plan. Some plans allow you to see a psychiatrist directly, while others may require a referral from a primary care provider. Check with your insurance company or review your plan details to confirm whether a referral is needed before booking your first session.
