Query: Hi! For Everyday Health, I’m seeking therapists and psychiatrists in practice to explain the difference between a therapist vs. psychiatrist. Here are my questions:
- What is a therapist? What type of training do therapists receive and what treatment can they offer?
- What is a psychiatrist? What type of training do psychiatrists receive and what treatment can they offer?
- What’s the difference between a therapist and a psychiatrist and how can someone decide when to see one over the other (or to see both)?
- If you’re seeking care for anxiety, should you see a psychiatrist, therapist, or both?
- Why would a therapist refer you to a psychiatrist?
Requirements: Psychiatrist and/or therapist currently in practice, ideally affiliated with a university or currently teaching/providing training to practitioners. Thanks in advance!
