If you are suffering from medication resistant depression, anxiety, OCD, or PTSD, a combination of talk therapy and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) may be the answer for you. For many people, antidepressants do not fully relieve the symptoms or cause too many side effects, and it can become very difficult going through multiple medications that do not seem to work. After failed medication attempts, you are eligible to be treated with TMS and therapy together. Call our Specialists to learn more about your options.

FAQ - Psychiatrist Gender
Does it matter what gender a psychiatrist is?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, typically using a combination of psychotherapy and medication management. While clinical expertise is essential, feeling comfortable with your psychiatrist is equally important to the success of treatment. For some individuals, this means working with a provider who shares aspects of their identity—such as gender. A preference for a female psychiatrist often stems from a desire for greater relatability and the comfort of being supported by someone who may share similar lived experiences or perspectives.
What are the advantages of seeing a female psychiatrist?
Female psychiatrists may also possess particular expertise in specialty areas that can be especially relevant to certain patients. Although psychiatrists of all genders are equally qualified, some female practitioners have developed additional expertise in areas such as reproductive and perinatal mental health, postpartum depression, menopause-related mood changes, premenstrual mood disorders, and the psychological effects of gender-based trauma or discrimination. For patients navigating these concerns, working with a female psychiatrist may provide an added sense of validation, empathy, and trust—factors that can be especially meaningful in building a strong therapeutic relationship.
How to find a female psychiatrist
The Psychology Today online directory allows users to search specifically for female psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs), with additional filters for clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, insurance acceptance, session costs, and languages spoken. Reviewing provider profiles helps you assess whether a psychiatrist's background, identity, and treatment philosophy align with your mental health needs and personal values. Considering identity factors in your provider search, such as gender, is a practical approach to finding a psychiatrist with whom you can communicate openly and build an effective therapeutic relationship.
