You should tell you mohter that you really think for your mental health that you need to see someone. If for some reason she does not understand that you should talk to your father or another close relative or a school counselor some one who could help you explain to your mohter the need for you to see someone. As for an age limit my daughter started to see a therapist at the age of 4 since her father was dealing with an addiction and I didn’t want her to blame herself for it. She’s now 15 and still seeing a therapist once a week. It’s helped her a lot and she’s an honor student at her high school.

A Psychiatrist is a Mental Health Physician or Doctor. They usually atetnd college 4 yrs for bachelor’s degree, then go to medical school. After medical school they have to do an internship at a hospital usually another 4 years. They can prescribe as they are medical doctors.The other two on your list you would see for therapy they cannot prescribe.Most Psychiatrists will do therapy AND medication management- its just up to your insurance whether they will cover both.
