Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy to help you work through mental health challenges. Psychiatrists often focus on evaluating treatment needs and, when appropriate, discussing and monitoring care options for mental health conditions in consultation with the patient. Therapists may hold titles like licensed professional counselor (LPC), licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), or psychologist. Some psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) can also prescribe and manage medication. On Headway, you can find both psychiatrists and therapists to match your needs.
