Content: They can, therefore, diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe appropriate medication. This is in contrast to a psychologist, who can provide therapeutic treatment but cannot prescribe medication to a patient. While psychiatrists will generally have some experience with therapy, they use their skills to understand your problem mainly for diagnosis and prescription purposes. They will often also recommend that you see a therapist in addition to using medication. How Do I Find a Psychiatrist? The most common ways to find a psychiatrist are: Get a referral from your doctor. This is highly recommended, as your primary care physician knows enough about you to refer you to someone who is perfect for your particular needs. You may also feel more comfortable seeing someone who you know your doctor trusts. Some insurances require that you get a referral letter from a doctor before seeing a psychiatrist.
