Psychiatrists are medical doctors (MDs or DOs) who complete medical school and a psychiatry residency, while psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) are advanced practice nurses with specialized graduate training in mental health care. Both can diagnose conditions, prescribe medication, and manage ongoing care. PMHNPs may have different supervision requirements depending on the state. On Headway, you can find both psychiatrists and PMHNPs in the Doylestown area.

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 to confirm whether a referral is needed before booking your first appointment.
