  • What is the difference between a psychologist and a psychiatrist?

Psychologists and psychiatrists are people who have dedicated their lives to master the art and science of how to help people with mental health concerns.

Psychologists and psychiatrists rely on each other and share a common goal, which is to provide assistance for people who have mental health issues. 

Psychologists mainly provide psychotherapy and counseling to help clients address their issues without the use of medication. These clients are those who have difficulties in dealing with everyday life due to disturbance in their thoughts and emotions (causes of these might have rooted from their early childhood traumatic experiences and up to adulthood). BUT in some cases upon evaluating the client’s situation, there are moments when a psychologist sees the need for the client to take medicine. This will be the time when they will be needing the help of the psychiatrists for further evaluation.

Psychiatrists prescribe medicines in order to help clients process their issues wherein the root cause of the disorder is biological or a chemical imbalance in their system (especially the brain). Once addressed, this can be the best time for the client to pursue psychotherapy with a psychologist. 

The psychiatrist can also ask for assistance from the psychologist if they see the client will benefit a lot from psychotherapy along with their medication plan.

With that said, psychiatrists and psychologists need each other in giving people better well-being.
