If you are here, and reaching out, know that you are doing a difficult, but very healthy thing. I am very proud of you. Baby steps....of course it isn't easy. It isn't supposed to be. As human beings, we have a million and one ways to hide our pain from the world. In many ways, that cloaking is protective and serves a real purpose. But, as time goes by, the pain or trauma begins to present in ways that we did not expect. Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Acute Panic Attacks, Anger, and many more mental health challenges rear their heads and do not go away until we process the trauma and it begins to melt away.

Choosing the right provider is an important step, but it can also be overwhelming. To make an informed decision, there are a few key factors to consider. A provider’s educational background and years of experience are fundamental in determining whether they are well-suited for your needs. Their clinical training across different settings—such as academic, outpatient, inpatient —ensures exposure to a broad range of knowledge and skills, forming the foundation of a solid education. While this may seem straightforward, it can often be a complex process. To make the search easier, ask the potential provider these questions.

FAQ - Couples Counseling Psychiatrists
Do psychiatrists see couples?
Yes, psychiatrists are medical doctors who can provide psychotherapy, such as couples counseling, in addition to prescribing medication. While most psychiatry does happen on an individual basis, some psychiatrists specialize in couples. Seeing a psychiatrist may be especially helpful when relationship challenges are connected to diagnosed mental health conditions (like depression, anxiety, trauma, or ADHD) that may benefit from the medical evaluation or medication management provided by a psychiatrist.
Should couples see a therapist or a psychiatrist?
A psychiatrist may be a good fit for couples facing relationship challenges when one or both partners have a diagnosed or suspected mental health condition, are already taking psychiatric medication, or may benefit from a medical evaluation. Psychiatrists can integrate medical care and psychiatric evaluation with relationship counseling, while therapists can not prescribe medication and focus solely on psychotherapy.
What are the differences between a couples psychiatrist and an individual psychiatrist?
All psychiatrists receive the same medical training, so there is no separate training or licensure for couples psychiatrists. However, some psychiatrists choose to offer couples counseling as part of their practice. In couples psychiatry sessions, the focus is on relationship and communication challenges, while also considering each partner’s mental health and any medications they are on. In individual psychiatry, care centers on one person’s symptoms and treatment plan, which allows for more individualized evaluation and medication management. This makes individual psychiatry more appropriate when relationship concerns are not the primary issue and one or both partners are seeking treatment for their own mental health conditions.
