Psychiatrists use various treatments to help you manage your mental health condition, including psychotherapy and medications.

Psychotherapy is a treatment that involves establishing a close, talking relationship between you and your therapist. Two examples of psychotherapy include:

  • cognitive therapy, which focuses on your thoughts and shows a relationship between dysfunctional thinking and unhealthy emotions or behaviors

Medications are often used in combination with psychotherapy to help you treat your mental health condition. Some examples of medications include:

  • antidepressants, which psychiatrists use to treat depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, and more
  • psychotropics, which psychiatrists use to treat delusions and hallucinations, such as with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia
  • sedatives, which are medications used to treat anxiety and insomnia
  • stimulants, which are medications used to treat ADHD

What should I expect from a psychiatrist appointment?

During your first appointment, your psychiatrist will talk with you about the reason for your visit, including why you think you need therapy. They’ll ask about your symptoms, how long you’ve had them, and what treatment you received in the past, if any. You can expect the conversation to include a discussion about your family, history, work, and other personal matters.

Toward the end of your visit, your psychiatrist will discuss your treatment plan and session frequency, which may include some recommended medications. You may use the end of your appointment as an opportunity to ask your psychiatrist any questions you have about your treatment plan.
