What Is the Difference Between Therapy, Counseling, and Psychiatry?
Therapy, provided by our counselors and therapists, addresses emotional and behavioral challenges using therapeutic techniques for mental well-being. Counseling, offered by counselors or therapists, focuses on specific issues and life adjustments, while psychiatry, led by our psychiatric nurse practitioners, involves diagnosing and treating mental health conditions with medication.
What Are the Types of Therapists You Can See?
While availability may vary, at Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry Washington DC, we offer:
- Licensed Independent Clinical Social Workers (LICSWs): Specialized in social work and counseling for individuals, families, and groups.
- Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs): Focused on relationship and family-related issues.
- Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs): Trained to provide mental health counseling.
When you connect with a provider at Thriveworks, you’ll be sharing your experience with an industry-leading expert; someone with the experience and professional insight you need to move forward.

How Much Does Therapy Cost?
At Thriveworks, we take most major forms of insurance, which means that many of our clients only pay $0-$50 co-pay per session. However, there are also self-pay options that sit around $200 per session (for both in-person and online sessions) depending on the service and location, for those who are out-of-network.
Should I Pursue Mental Health Services? Can Counseling Help Me?
Our mental health experts specialize in different areas and have experience helping different age groups. We only partner with the best of the best providers, to best ensure that you get the quality mental health care you deserve. Here are a few of the problems our providers are qualified to help with:
- Understanding, coping with, and managing mental illness: Depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, addiction. There are over 200 forms of mental illness. If you are suffering from symptoms of depression, anxiety, or another form of mental illness, our providers can help you.
- Working through relationship issues: What other mental health issues are prevalent among humans? Relationship problems. It’s in our nature to disagree and argue with others, especially those we invest our time and energy into, such as our significant others, friends, and family members. If your relationships are suffering due to jealousy, financial strife, a disagreement, opposing opinions, jealousy, lack of trust, or another conflict, Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry DC can help through couples therapy, family therapy, and marriage counseling.
- Managing difficult emotions and/or stress: As humans, we also struggle with a range of emotions. While some of these emotions are, of course, pleasant, others are really tough to endure. In fact, many of us don’t know exactly what to do with these difficult feelings—how to process, manage, and communicate them properly. The good news is that our mental health providers can help you with every step of understanding and managing your emotions as well as stressful situations.
We wholeheartedly believe that anyone and everyone can benefit from working with a mental health professional, whether you’ve developed symptoms of a mental illness, you’re struggling in your relationships, or you are enduring difficult emotions and/or stress that you don’t know what to do with. We’re happy to help in these mentally and emotionally challenging situations and others.
When to Talk to an Experienced Thriveworks Psychiatric Provider
Among the many mental health professionals at Thriveworks, our psychiatric nurse practitioners are uniquely qualified to provide the expertise of a medical doctor during treatment. As medical school graduates, psychiatrists can evaluate any physical and psychological symptoms you may be experiencing and administer a comprehensive treatment plan that is tailored to your needs.
To determine the nature of your condition and the best path forward, your psychiatric provider may perform a range of psychological and physical tests. They can provide talk therapy services and, unlike other mental health professionals, can directly prescribe medication when necessary.
Speaking to a licensed psychiatrist can be helpful when dealing with a wide variety of psychological issues. To make an online therapy appointment with one of our board-certified psychiatric providers, get in touch with us today at Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry DC.
