Psychiatry

Treatment for Emotional & Behavioral Health Disorders

To Schedule an appointment with a psychiatrist, please call 307.578.2283.

Psychiatrists are specialists in mental health and substance use disorders. Their treatment is aimed at mental health, which plays a major role in the body’s overall health and wellbeing.

In psychiatry, imaging tests and surgical procedures are not commonly, if ever, used to diagnose a patient’s condition. Instead, psychiatrists draw on their in-depth knowledge of human behaviors and psychology to identify mental health issues that could be improved with treatment. You can think of psychiatry as a verbal form of treatment, where results are reached through communication and moderate medication.
