I see a therapist and a pdoc. Until I started posting here, I had never heard of a pdoc giving therapy.

I can see some benefits in having your pdoc give you therapy. One of those benefits is what you already stated -- "better understanding". It also means you'll be checking in with him more often, which implies that he can better assess your medication regimen.

I don't think he'll constantly change your meds, though. I can't see him being any different from a regular pdoc who doesn't do therapy. There's a difference between life struggles (e.g., something bad in your life happened) and neurochemical imbalances (e.g., feeling depressed for no reason). He's probably well rounded enough to know the difference.
Thanks for this!
