Shrinkiatrist

The origin of this word is extremely simple and in most ways unique too. Coined for the first time in the early 2013 and also at times in the late 2012; Made by the combination of the words 'Shrink' which basically means a psychiatrist or a psychologist or in much easier terms a therapist in the United States and the other half of the word is a common usage of what explains a person of their profession, much like psych-iatrist.
