What it is

A doctor for mood, anxiety, sleep and thinking.

A psychiatrist is the doctor who assesses and treats disorders of mood, anxiety, sleep, thought and behaviour. They prescribe medication, order tests and propose psychotherapy or other treatments, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation.

A psychiatry appointment is indicated whenever symptoms interfere with daily life.
