The number of psychiatrists in Iceland increased by five psychiatrists (+6.67 percent) since the previous year. In total, the number of psychiatrists amounted to 80 psychiatrists in 2022. A psychiatrist owns a medical doctor's degree, specialized in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental health conditions. Thus, psychiatrists are allowed to prescribe medication which, in many countries, distinguishes them from psychologists/psychotherapists. Psychiatrists can also be trained in specialty areas of psychiatry like neuropsychiatry or child psychiatry.
