What doctors deal with emotional problems?
9 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
M.D. and Ph.D.: Psychologists are typically the doctors who work with emotional problems. Some psychiatrists do too, but most psychiatrists are prescribers.

All doctors: All physicians deal with emotional problems, since emotional problems affect all body systems. I have had many conversations with dermatologists, family medicine, surgeons, internists and everyone is in agreement that it is always necessary to treat the whole patient. Of course, psychiatrists and psychologists receive the most training to treat emotional problems, but all doctors are involved.
