A psychiatrist can prescribe medication, and a psychologist can't.
A psychologist can do psychological evaluations, which a psychiatrist can't.
They both do therapy, as do social workers.
I don't have anyone to recommend to you, but most psychiatrists do accept insurance.

You can always call Oxford and give them your zip code and they can help you find a doc.

It definitely does..it has certainly worked for me in the past. Many psychologists also take insurance, so if you do a provider search online, i'm sure you'll find someone. Good luck sweetie!
