Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and monitor your response to that medication over time.

Some psychiatrists also offer talk therapy, but most focus primarily on medication management. If you're unsure which type of provider is right for you, Headway has both therapists and psychiatrists available so you can explore your options.
