The needs of a patient with a mental disorder should primarily be addressed by a **mental health professional**. Mental health professionals, such as psychologists, psychiatrists, and licensed counselors, have the training and expertise to diagnose and treat mental health conditions effectively. While other healthcare providers, such as internal medicine doctors or speech therapists, may play a role in the overall health of the patient or in specific aspects of their care, mental health professionals are specifically equipped to handle mental disorders.
