Psychiatry allows people struggling to manage mental conditions or disorders to get access to medications that will make daily functioning easier, as well as work through any mental factors that might be causing or worsening their condition. Though medications can’t cure mental disorders, medication can make symptoms more manageable, making the process of psychotherapeutic treatment easier and more effective. Psychiatric care can be available through in-person psychiatry and online psychiatry, depending on where you live and your own preferences. However, psychiatric providers at Thriveworks in Waltham, MA specifically offer online psychiatry to their clients.
A therapist has an education specifically rooted in therapeutic practice, approaches, techniques, and treatment. They cannot prescribe medications for clients, though they often refer clients to psychiatrists for medication management. Psychiatrists are medically trained doctors who specialize in mental health treatment, mainly through medication management and prescription, though they can also practice therapy.

They are qualified to diagnose and treat mental health conditions, prescribe medications, and provide therapy.

Imagine: You’ve been battling anxiety since you were a teenager and have never really gotten the help you have been looking for. Although counseling has helped with your thoughts and behaviors, you still have a hard time getting your anxiety under control. You wish you could drive past your ex’s neighborhood without feeling overwhelmed and anxious and you also wish you could perform your job without the constant fear of doing something wrong or not meeting your due dates. If only there was something else you could do to help your anxiety.
Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask yourself if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.” –Deepak Chopra
