What a psychiatrist provides
Psychiatrists are medical doctors (MD or DO) who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage it over time. Some also provide therapy, but their distinctive role is medication management — starting, adjusting, and monitoring prescriptions for conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and more. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) offer similar prescribing care and are included here where listed.
A first appointment is usually an evaluation of your history and symptoms to decide whether medication may help and, if so, which. Many people work with a psychiatrist for medication alongside a separate therapist for talk therapy. If you're weighing medication or need an existing prescription managed, the providers below in Miami can help.
