“I recommend Talkiatry to anyone that will listen. The benefits this network has provided me in such a short time are priceless and immeasurable.
Nancy L., Ohio
I like my new doctor. She listens to me and I feel like I have a say in what is going on with my healthcare.
Suzanne M., West Virginia
The doctor was extremely empathetic and listened and understood me. I have went to many doctors face to face and I find that quality extremely rare. I cannot thank this doctor enough and I am so relieved to have found this service. Truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much.
Teah F., Ohio
You all are literally saving lives by making mental healthcare accessible to everyone. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Psychiatry or Therapy
No need to choose between them. Most patients benefit from seeing both. Here’s how it works at Talkiatry.
Psychiatry at Talkiatry
Psychiatrists are mental health doctors who evaluate your symptoms and history, and recommend treatment that can include medication. They might recommend therapy, too. Either with one of our therapists or with a specialist outside our practice.
Therapy
Therapy can make your treatment plan more effective by providing more strategies and techniques for managing and understanding your symptoms. We have therapists on staff who work with our psychiatry patients, but we can work with any therapist you choose.
We’re here to help you thrive
Every patient’s goals differ, but here are some of the more common ways psychiatry could help.
- Stronger relationships
Psychiatry treats underlying issues that impact how people connect and interact. - Improved quality of life
By treating the root cause, we can impact daily life in positive ways. - More resilience
By addressing your condition, you’re better able to cope with difficult emotions.

Frequently asked questions
Who are your psychiatrists?
Who are your psychiatrists?
Our team of over 600 psychiatrists represent a wide range of personal backgrounds, professional experience, and geographic location. What they all have in common is a commitment to providing high-quality mental health care backed up by thousands of hours of clinical experience.
Who will I be matched with?
Who will I be matched with?
It’s our mission to connect you with the best possible care. We have more than 300 psychiatrists on staff. To narrow down the possibilities and zero in on the right clinician for you, we use our online assessment. Here are the criteria it uses for finding you a match.
Location: Even though we’re a virtual practice, your psychiatrist needs to be licensed to practice medicine in the state you live in.
Age range: Psychiatrists specialize in treating specific age ranges (i.e. child, adolescent, adult, senior). We’ll only show you psychiatrists who are a fit for you.
Reason for your visit: In the assessment, we’ll ask some questions about why you’re seeking care. We use that to help find a psychiatrist who can diagnose and treat you. Mental health diagnoses can be complicated and symptoms can overlap. After your initial evaluation, if your psychiatrist thinks a psychiatrist with a different specialty is a better fit, we’ll connect you with one.
But we understand that mental health care is personal. If you’re unhappy with your doctor, we’ll help you find a different one. Call us at 833-351-8255 or email hello@talkiatry.com and we’ll rematch you.
