How does a psychiatrist diagnose adults?
When our adult psychiatrists are diagnosing a patient, they will typically conduct a full evaluation that includes psychiatric history and possibly using physical/medical tests to rule out any physiological issues. The psychiatrist may use self-report measures or psychological testing to assess the individual's mental health and to to gain insight into the client’s background, thoughts, feelings and behaviors. The evaluation also contains questions about current symptoms and functioning so that an appropriate diagnosis can be made.

Q
What are the benefits of seeking treatment from a psychiatrist?
Because mental health is such an important factor in overall well-being, seeking treatment from a psychiatrist can bring many beneficial outcomes. The psychiatrist will evaluate the patient's needs and recommend evidence-based treatments such as medications, therapies, and lifestyle changes to address whatever issues they might have.
Q
Are these psychiatric treatments covered by insurance?
P.S. Psychiatry is considered an out-of-network practice, meaning we do not participate in insurance plans. However, because of this, we are able to use whatever method of care works best for you without your insurance company rendering your care by deciding if your concern is serious enough for ongoing treatment.
Q
Should I see a psychiatrist or a psychologist?
Psychiatrists are trained in the ability to assess, diagnose, treat mental illness, and prescribe medications if necessary. In contrast, psychologists are qualified to provide counseling. Psychologists do not have prescribing rights, but they can refer patients to psychiatrists for medication prescription if needed. Both options are proven very beneficial for your mental health, and are even better when you are seeing both so the practitioners are able to collaborate to provide you with the best care possible.
Q
How often do you see a psychiatrist?
The frequency of visits with your P.S. Psychiatry provider is determined on a case-to-case basis and based on many variables that your provider can explain. Typically visits will be more frequent at the beginning and lessen over time when your condition is stable.
