My MO handled all of my prescriptions for everything but if I had it to do over, I would have had a psychiatrist on the team for depression issues. I would be watching this issue very carefully. Most of us didn't have depression issues until post Tx. Psychologists can't prescribe medications - they do cognitive (talk) therapy only.
