What can a psychiatrist help you with?
A psychiatrist can help diagnose, treat, and follow up on a wide range of mental health disorders and challenges, including depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, eating disorders, trauma, and personality disorders. They offer talk therapy and assess the need for medication. Unlike psychologists, psychiatrists can prescribe medications and often have more expertise with physical health conditions if your situation is complex. Our psychiatrists can support you over time, just like our psychologists.
When should you choose a psychiatrist rather than a psychologist?
Den viktigste forskjellen mellom en psykiater og en psykolog er at psykiateren er utdannet lege. Det betyr at en psykiater kan:
- Skrive ut resepter og vurdere behovet for medisiner.
- Utføre medikamentell oppfølging over tid.
- Utredede sammensatte tilstander hvor fysisk sykdom kan spille inn på den psykiske helsen.
Både psykiatere og psykologer er spesialister på samtaleterapi, men du bør velge en psykiater dersom du mistenker at du kan ha behov for medisinsk behandling i tillegg til samtaler.
Conversation with a psychiatrist
We offer 45-minute sessions with a psychiatrist, either via video or at one of our clinics. For shorter follow-ups, we also offer 25-minute consultations, both online and in person. You can book an individual session or a consultation for families, children, and adolescents.
Not sure if psychiatry is right for you?
You don’t need to know exactly what you need before booking an appointment. In your first session, you and the psychiatrist will map out your situation together. After that, you will receive a professional recommendation on what the best and most appropriate treatment for you would be. You can choose whether you want to have the session via video or meet in person at one of our comfortable clinics in Oslo or Trondheim.
