Frequently Asked Questions
Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behavior. It explores how we think, feel, act, and interact, both individually and in groups. Our psychology services focus on understanding and supporting your mental health and well-being through various therapeutic approaches.
Psychologists are trained professionals who study and support human behavior and mental health. While there are different types, the term usually refers to clinical or counseling psychologists—experts who help people manage emotional and psychological difficulties through talk therapy, not medication . Most are also psychotherapists, qualified to deliver evidence-based treatments for a range of mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, and eating disorders.
Psychologists primarily provide psychotherapy (talk therapy) and psychological assessments. They typically have a doctoral degree in psychology (Ph.D. or Psy.D.). Psychiatrists are medical doctors (MD) who specialize in mental health. They can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe and manage medication, and may also provide psychotherapy. At the American Center for Psychiatry and Neurology, our psychologists and psychiatrists often collaborate to provide comprehensive care.
Our psychologists are trained in a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including [mention specific therapies listed on your page, e.g., Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), play therapy for children, etc., if applicable from your site]. We tailor the approach to your individual needs and concerns.
