What Is It — Psychiatry Consultation — Manovritti

What is psychiatry consultation?

When the mind needs
medical support too.

A psychiatry consultation is a clinical assessment conducted by a qualified psychiatrist — a medical doctor specialising in mental health. Unlike a psychologist, a psychiatrist can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication where appropriate.

At Manovritti, our psychiatrist works directly alongside our therapy team. This integrated model means your therapist and psychiatrist share clinical context, coordinate your care, and ensure that medication and therapy support each other rather than working in isolation.

A psychiatric consultation does not mean you will be put on medication. Many consultations result in a diagnosis with therapy as the primary treatment. Medication is only recommended when it is clinically indicated — and always discussed openly with you first.

Is this right for you?

A psychiatry consultation
may help if...

Psychiatric care is not a last resort. Many people benefit earlier than they expect - especially when a medical lens can explain what therapy alone cannot.

You have been in therapy for a while but progress has stalled - and you wonder if something biological is contributing.

You have been diagnosed with or suspect bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, severe OCD, or a condition that often requires medication.

Your anxiety or depression is severe enough to significantly affect your ability to work, sleep, eat, or function day to day.

You are currently on psychiatric medication prescribed elsewhere and want integrated care - therapy and medication in one place.

A doctor or therapist has recommended a psychiatric evaluation and you want it to be connected to your broader mental health care.

You are experiencing symptoms like psychosis, mania, severe dissociation, or suicidal thoughts that need immediate clinical assessment.

You have tried multiple medications but have not found the right one - and want a fresh clinical review.

You want to understand whether your struggles have a medical basis before deciding on a treatment path.

FAQ

Questions about psychiatry consultation

The questions we hear most before a first session. If yours is not here, we are a message away.

Still have a question?

Message us on WhatsApp - Mon to Sun, 9 AM to 7 PM.

01

Will I definitely be put on medication?

No. A psychiatric consultation is an assessment - not a prescription. Many consultations result in therapy as the primary recommendation. Medication is only suggested when it is clinically indicated and always discussed openly with you before being prescribed.
02

What is the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist?

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (MBBS + MD Psychiatry) who can diagnose and prescribe medication. A psychologist is a mental health professional trained in therapy and assessment but cannot prescribe. At Manovritti, both work together.
03

Do I need to be in therapy first before seeing the psychiatrist?

No - you can book a psychiatric consultation directly. However, for most people, the psychiatrist will recommend therapy alongside or instead of medication, so having a therapist in the same practice makes care significantly easier to coordinate.
04

Is the psychiatry consultation available online?

No. Psychiatric consultations require in-person attendance at our East Delhi centre. A proper clinical assessment needs physical presence - this is both a clinical and regulatory requirement.
05

How do the psychiatrist and therapist work together?

They share a clinical understanding of your case - with your consent - and coordinate your treatment plan. This means your medication and therapy approach are aligned, not decided independently. You are not the go-between.
