Can My Psychiatric Provider Provide Therapy?

Psychiatric providers at Talkspace focus mainly on medication management and assessment. While some may offer limited therapy or supportive counseling during your psychiatry sessions, therapy is not guaranteed as part of psychiatry services.

If you want regular therapy sessions, you should sign up for a therapy plan in addition to psychiatry.

When you use both therapy and psychiatry services at Talkspace, your providers can securely view each other’s notes, helping them stay aligned on your treatment plan and goals.

If you’re interested in having both services, here’s how to get started:

  • Already have a Talkspace account? Add the other service anytime by selecting Add a service in your account.
  • New to Talkspace? Sign up for either therapy or psychiatry, then add the other once your account is set up.
