Re: Psychiatrist/psychotherapist/psychologist what is best?

[Anonymous]

Psychologists are doctors that help people work out some emotional and

logical problems and develop more and better ways to do that. They are

like managers and advisers.

Psychiatrists are highly trained experts in the medical side of the field who

went years further in medical training and are authorized to use drugs and

other medical procedures to help people with complex neurological problems

that psychologists and their staff cannot handle. They are the top of the field

and if they interact with psychologists at all it’s mostly to employ them as

researchers and managers of support staff.

Psychotherapists are either of those two or are the people who work under

their supervision. It’s a generic term that covers everybody in the field.
