I actually have both a P/doc who does talk therapy and does my meds and a cognitive therapist. I see p/doc once a week and ct 2x a week.Thank goodness my insurance pays all but the co-pay.

When I first went to this p/doc, I thought he would be doing just my meds but he said he doesn't do things that way. He wants to know what is going on in my life to help see how the meds are working. As it turns out he is a sexual trauma specialist and I have done more work with him about things I never told anybody before and thought I would take to my grave.

There are still some around that do this, though it is probably the older generation. My T and I are both 60.
