The practice of psychiatry involves the diagnosis and treatment of mental health and emotional problems. The brain has many functions, including management of emotional, behavioral, cognitive and perceptual processes. When these functions are disrupted by illness that is not due to a major anatomical problem, infection, or other medically determined cause, the illness is described as psychiatric.
