Read guidePeople search 'psychiatrist vs psychologist' because the words are used loosely in ads. Under Florida Statute §458 and §459, only licensed MDs and DOs practice as physicians; psychiatry residencies and ABPN certification sit on that pathway. Under Florida Statute §490, psychologists provide assessment and psychotherapy and do not prescribe in this state. Under Florida Statute §464.012 and Board of Nursing rules, a PMHNP-BC may diagnose and prescribe within specialty scope. This page is the credential map for this clinic: what we can do, what we refer, and why we will not put 'board-certified psychiatrist' in the title tag.
