Psychologists and Psychiatrists

Introduction


Below is a list of psychologists and psychiatrists that our patients have seen for a variety of issues. As with seeing any specialist, your insurance may have a specific list of providers or encourage you to access a psychologist or psychiatrist through a referral source specific to your insurance. It is your responsibility to check with your insurance (and/or their current provider directory) regarding any specific referral requirements. However, once you supply us with specific information about an appointment with a provider, we will send into the insurance any specific referral information that they require. In addition, you should know that insurance coverage of appointments with psychologists and psychiatrists varies widely between different insurance plans. Therefore, it is possible that these appointments will not be covered by your insurance (and will be an out-of-pocket expense).


There are some important differences between a psychologist and psychiatrist. A psychologist has a Ph.D.; does counseling, testing, and assessments; and cannot prescribe medication. A psychiatrist has a M.D. or D.O.; does counseling, treatments, and therapy; and can prescribe medication for a variety of issues: Attention Deficit Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and many others. We will discuss with you whether your child would most likely benefit from seeing a psychologist or psychiatrist.
