Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialize in mental health. They have completed medical school and residency training in psychiatry, which equips them to diagnose and treat mental illnesses. Psychiatrists can prescribe medications and often integrate medical and psychological approaches to treatment, considering the complex interplay between emotional and physical health. Psychologists, on the other hand, typically hold a doctoral degree in psychology and focus on understanding human behavior and mental processes. They are trained in various therapeutic techniques and often conduct psychological testing and assessments. While psychologists can provide therapy, they generally do not prescribe medications unless they have received additional training and licensure in certain jurisdictions. Therapists is a broader term that encompasses various mental health professionals, including psychologists, licensed professional counselors (LPC), licensed clinical social workers (LCSW), marriage and family therapists (LMFT), and others who provide counseling services. Therapists focus on helping individuals, couples, and families address emotional and psychological challenges through talk therapy and other therapeutic modalities.
