Psychiatry Referrals

Medications are sometimes a necessary part of mental health treatment. Research shows that a combination of therapy and medications are more effective in treating mental illness than either of these components on their own. Psychiatrists are medical specialists who treat mental health conditions. As doctors, they are able to prescribe medications that your therapist cannot. Many people consult with other types of medical professionals when they are choosing whether to take medicine for a mental illness, such as primary care physicians, gynecologists, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners. If you are interested in seeing a specialist, here are some who have current availabilities. 

Please keep the following in mind:

  • There is a high demand for psychiatry services in Michigan. You may need to wait a month or more before your initial appointment with a psychiatrist. Talk with your therapist about coping with this waiting period, and how to be seen on a more urgent basis.

  • Whenever possible, we have noted whether those listed accept insurance. This information can change, so please verify this information when making an appointment.

  • We do not recommend or express preference for any psychiatrists or prescribing clinicians. Listing professionals here does not constitute an endorsement of their services, skills, or practice. We have not received compensation from any individuals listed here.

  • If you would like to be listed here, or would like to recommend that we list a professional on this page, please contact us.
