Kind of Therapist
Psychiatrist, psychologist, psychoanalyst, psychopharmacologist, psychotherapist and counsellor – Thinking about seeing a therapist but confused about all the different titles? The list below attempts to explain the various professions within the mental health industry.
Psychiatrist
A psychiatrist is a physician who specialises in psychiatry, which is to say in the diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders. Psychiatrists are medical doctors, unlike psychologists, and must evaluate patients to determine whether their symptoms are the result of a physical illness, a combination of physical and mental, or a strictly psychiatric one.
Psychotherapist
This is an umbrella term for any professional who is trained to treat people for their emotional problems. Depending upon their academic degree, a psychotherapist can be a psychiatrist, psychologist, or social worker, and work with individuals, couples, groups, or families.
Psychologist
They are professionals specialising in diagnosing and treating diseases of the brain, emotional disturbance, and behaviour problems. Psychologists can only use talk therapy as treatment; you must see a psychiatrist or other medical doctor to be treated with medication.
Counsellor
Counselling is the provision of professional assistance and guidance in resolving personal or psychological problems and is carried out by a trained (and certified) professional.
