EN: psychiatrist
The next level 'psikologo'. They're medical doctors, so they're the ones who can actually prescribe you the 'happy pills' (or anxiety meds, etc.) when life gives you more than just lemons. If a psychologist helps you talk through it, a psychiatrist can medicate you through it.
From English 'psychiatrist'. The more Filipinized spelling is 'saykayatris'.
Often used interchangeably with 'psychologist' in casual conversation, but they are distinct professions. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can prescribe medication.
