In reply to Are some psychiatrists better than others?, posted by Michael83 on August 24, 2007, at 0:24:28
Hi Michael,
My first psychiatrist did therapy and psychoanalysis and offered to do both meds management and therapy with me at our first appointment. I had a therapist already and didn't want to see him for anything, but meds so I said no.
He went out of the insurance network and so now I see Dr. Clueless who is a psychopharmacologist, but also is into yoga, tai chi and breath work. Which suits my style much more than the first pdoc did even though he did do therapy.
I can't really say if some pdocs are better than others as I've only had two, but Clueless despite my name for her has nailed me on being sensory defensive. So I would give her the edge over the first one.
