Mainly for anxiety and depression disorders...appreciate your feedback...I have united healthcare as my provider and am getting names of my own off their site, but in the past I have had trouble knowing which were decent and which just pushed meds....so appreciate the HiveMind at work and thanks in advance. post:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.84578 Mon, 25 Feb 2008 12:11:49 -0800 snap_dragon anxiety depression http://ask.metafilter.com/84578/Need-some-MetaHelp#1251223 I have a family member in Elkhart who has been seeing someone; not sure if it is a psychiatrist or just a counselor, but I'll ask and see what I can find out. Might take a bit but if nobody else answers I might still be able to help you. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.84578-1251223 Mon, 25 Feb 2008 12:36:06 -0800 caution live frogs http://ask.metafilter.com/84578/Need-some-MetaHelp#1251253 If you don't want to have meds pushed, a psychiatrist may be the wrong choice. Perhaps a psychologist would meet your needs better. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.84578-1251253 Mon, 25 Feb 2008 12:54:04 -0800 tkolar http://ask.metafilter.com/84578/Need-some-MetaHelp#1251267 No, a psychiatrist is fine...I just don't want them to listen for 2 minutes and then slam me with meds...we're talking bedside manner...i have no issue with meds. Too many simply medicate. I am working on the counseling angle as well so appreciate that input, though. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.84578-1251267 Mon, 25 Feb 2008 13:04:59 -0800 snap_dragon http://ask.metafilter.com/84578/Need-some-MetaHelp#1251397 Snap_Dragon, email or MeFi mail me.

Heard from my family member that the person in question is a counselor for the university, not a psychiatrist. Hope you can find the info you need from Roach. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.84578-1253015 Tue, 26 Feb 2008 22:19:12 -0800 caution live frogs http://ask.metafilter.com/84578/Need-some-MetaHelp#1255484 Thanks MeFi friends, I think there is some help on the way... comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.84578-1255484 Thu, 28 Feb 2008 18:28:40 -0800 snap_dragon
