When should I see a Psychotherapist, a Psychologist, or a Psychiatrist?

Titles can be confusing and intimidating! Here’s a breakdown of what each kind of professional offers:

  • Psychotherapists and Social Workers offer talk therapy. Their education and experience are comparable, and they are often covered under the same line item in insurance policies. 
  • Psychologists often have a Doctorate of Clinical Psychology and can perform assessments and give medical diagnoses. They also offer talk therapy.  
  • Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialize in the prescription of medications for mental health concerns. 

Our team of leading experts work together to make sure their patients are receiving the best care we can offer.
