Psychiatric assessments

Why someone might see a psychiatrist

Psychiatrists diagnose mental health conditions and recommend a range of treatments, this can include psychological treatment (also called psychotherapy or talking therapy), medication and targeted therapies for specific conditions.

They may also offer practical advice about diet, sleep and other ways you can help yourself get better. They will provide you with information about your condition, which can help you to understand your symptoms and treatments.

Your psychiatrist will only suggest treatments that are proven to be safe and effective.
