A psychiatrist is a medical doctor specializing in diagnosing, treating, and preventing mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia. They use a combination of psychotherapy, medication management, and lifestyle interventions to help patients manage symptoms and improve well-being. A neuropsychiatrist is a sub-specialist who focuses on the intersection of psychiatry and neurology, treating mental health disorders related to neurological conditions like brain injuries and neurodegenerative diseases. They use neuroimaging and cognitive assessments to develop comprehensive treatment plans that address both psychiatric and neurological symptoms, enhancing overall brain health and quality of life.
