Specializes in Psychiatry

Eval: The way to find out is to see a doctoral level clinical psychologist or a psychiatrist for a comprehensive evaluation. There can be an overlap in symptoms that can make distinguishing between them difficult.

DEPRESSION/ANXIETY: First have a complete physical exam by a Dr. to rule out an underlying biological problem. If no problem then consult with a Clinical Psychologist for psychotherapy help and a Psychiatrist for medication consult.
