What's The Difference?
Psychiatrists are physicians (medical doctors) who use medication to treat your symptoms. Psychologists and therapists use therapy to help you talk through your problems.
Nurse practitioners (NP) and physician assistants (PA) are trained medical professionals who work directly under the supervision of physicians. NPs and PAs are able to diagnose conditions, create treatment plans, and prescribe medications with the permission of their supervising physician.
Psychologists and psychiatrists both have doctoral degrees, usually a PhD or PsyD for psychologists and an MD or DO for psychiatrists. Our masters level therapy providers have masters degrees in counseling, social work, or family and marital counseling.
Sometimes, a combination of therapy and medication works best. In that case, patients see a psychiatrist for medication management and a therapist for talk therapy.
