i hope i am putting this in the right forum...if not, feel free to move.

is this hard to find? i am currently seeking an md/psychiatrist, but i want them to also have good psychotherapy skills and not just throw meds at me. i want a psychiatrist specifically incase meds will be helpful to me (i havr mostly avoided them out of fear), but i dont want someone who will just prescribe a bunch of stuff. i have been to a psychiatrist years ago and id say he was soso at psychotherapy/counseling, but not exactly what i was looking for...and more recently, i was seeing a psychologist who was okay, but still not the complete package i was looking for.

i know that psychiatrists are medical doctors and thats probably the bulk of their education and experience, but how much are they given in the way of talk therapy and such?

should i just seek a psychologist and then talk to a regular doctor about meds? talk therapy doesnt generally work alone for me. i need something to supplement, but like i said, i dont want meds to be my entire treatment.

im also looking through my insurance book for doctors and looking them up online because i like to know what other people think of them and some reviews are really turning me off. maybe im just finding excuses to be picky...but i need to be picky with something like this.

i dunno.
