Choosing the Right Mental Health Provider

If you believe you may suffer from symptoms of depression, anxiety, or other mental health disorders, it can be difficult to know where to start in order to get the best care. If you have a primary care doctor, it’s a good idea to discuss your situation and try to get a referral; there are many kinds of mental health providers with different specialties and modals of treatments. Below you’ll find a brief description of the expertise we can offer.

Psychiatrists

Psychiatrists are medical doctors who have graduated from medical school and specialized in psychiatry, they are able to prescribe and manage psychiatric medication. Some psychiatrists choose to see patients for medication management only, while others may also provide psychotherapy.

Therapists And Councelors

Many types of professionals can provide a variety of psychotherapeutic approaches used in the treatment of mental health disorders. Therapists can provide talk therapy, including psychodynamic or “insight-oriented” therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, and others. Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW) and Licensed Professional Counselors (LPC) may also have training in particular therapeutic areas that can be very helpful to patients. Therapists and counselors do not prescribe medication.
