About Psychiatrist
Psychiatrists specialize in treating mental illness and disorders. Unlike psychologists, psychiatrists can prescribe medications for the disorders. The professional practice of psychiatry began with Sigmund Freud, but the 'talking cure' that he developed has fallen out of fashion and medications are more commonly used than psychotherapy to 'cure' mental illness.
