It depends. There are psychiatrists who, after initial evaluation, dispense medications. And they should recommend psychotherapy with someone if they think it is warranted.
Some psychiatrists will do both meds and psychotherapy. However, psychiatrists charge a much higher rate than non-psychiatrist therapists. Most insurance companies balk at this higher rate. So instead of being compensated for lower cost therapy, most psychiatrists prefer to concentrate on the medical side of mental health and leave psychotherapy to psychologists, therapists, counselors, and others.
