They are experts in psychotropics.

They can work with you to reduce your anxiety as well as the depression.

It can be tricky to find these kinds of specialists. Look on the internet and see who is in practice in your town.
And then call around to see who is taking new patients.

You may have to have a session with a couple of them to see which ones are a good fit with you.
