Choosing a psychiatrist or therapist is an important decision. The best results can be achieved when you are able to connect with a mental health professional who can tailor a treatment plan to your individual needs and preferences. Such an individualized treatment plan may consist primarily of psychotherapy (i.e. “talk therapy” or counseling), pharmacotherapy (i.e. medication), or some combination of the two. Therein lies the value of seeing a psychiatrist who is both physician and therapist, as is the case with Dr. Evans at Middle Path Psychiatry.
