Psychiatry is a medical speciality that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental disorders. Psychotherapy is a form of mental health treatment which involves talking with a professional therapist. Together, they can help people with stress. Psychiatrists and psychotherapists work together to diagnose and treat patients with stress-related disorders like depression, anxiety, panic disorder, PTSD – post-traumatic stress disorder -, OCD -obsessive compulsive disorder -, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. These specialists are trained to provide patients with the most appropriate medication for their condition as well as psychotherapy sessions. Combining these two treatments can be very helpful for those who suffer from chronic or severe mental health problems like depression or anxiety disorder.
