What is Psychiatric Talk Therapy?
As a part of your ongoing treatment plan, your psychiatrist or nurse practitioner may recommend talk therapy: also referred to as psychotherapy.
Talk therapy with a psychiatrist may look and feel very similar to traditional therapy (or psychotherapy). The only difference is that your psychiatrist is a licensed medical provider. This becomes advantageous if your treatment plan involves medication management.
Since there is so much overlap, many patients choose to engage in traditional therapy with their psychiatrist.
