Black patients and Psychiatry

Black psychiatrists: depression, anxiety, bipolar, PTSD, medication management. Black adults are diagnosed with schizophrenia at 3 to 4 times the correct rate.

Black Americans are diagnosed with schizophrenia at 3 to 4 times the rate of white Americans with the same symptoms, often because providers misread cultural expression, mistrust, or trauma responses as psychosis (Schwartz & Blankenship, World Psychiatry, 2014). Black adults with major depression are half as likely to receive treatment, and Black men face disproportionate rates of being medicated first rather than offered therapy. Psychiatrists are MDs or DOs who can prescribe medication and bring depth to complex diagnoses.

Conditions psychiatrists treat

  • Major depression and treatment-resistant depression
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Anxiety disorders, including panic and OCD
