i (25F) recently started a new job that provides health insurance, so naturally the first thing i look into is finding a doctor to talk to about anxiety and depression.

i started an anti-depressant and anti-anxiety meds back in the spring for the first time so i'm curious if i should find a psychiatrist to talk to so they have the ability to change my meds if needed, or if i should just get a therapist since my primary doctor (who im changing now due to my new health insurance) was the one to prescribe me the meds in the first place?

i'm new to this and not sure whether to get a psychiatrist or therpist. help please!!
