Psychiatrists are medical professionals specializing in mental health. They treat mental, emotional and behavioural disorders through psychological solutions, medications and therapies.
Statistics show that approximately 50% of Canadians have suffered from mental illness by the time they reach 40. Successful psychiatry treatment can help to minimize the impact this has on an individual’s life. When you are feeling vulnerable or facing distressing symptoms, getting the help you need can seem like an overwhelming task. If you’re struggling to find time for an appointment, aren’t wanting to physically travel, or face a long wait to see a psychiatrist in person, then talking to an online psychiatrist can be a good place to start. That’s why we are here to help make the first step as easy as possible.

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who is trained to recognize and treat common psychiatric disorders using therapy and medication. A psychologist differs as they are not medical doctors but instead are a specialist in mental illnesses. They cannot prescribe medications and instead focus on treating patients using psychotherapy. An appointment with a psychiatrist is covered by MSP, but not with a psychologist.
Appointments usually include a discussion of your physical and mental health history. The psychiatrist will talk with you about your symptoms and reason for the appointment as part of their psychiatric evaluation. The aim is by the end of the clinic session they will provide you with a potential diagnosis and guidance on next steps.
An appointment with a psychiatrist requires a referral from a general doctor.
