Psychiatry is the medical specialty devoted to the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of mental disorders. These include various maladaptations related to mood, behavior, cognition, and perceptions. Psychiatrists evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients with mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders. They conduct thorough psychiatric evaluations, develop treatment plans, prescribe medication, and evaluate treatment results.

Each year, The George T. Harding IV Mental Health and Community Conference is held in his honor, delving into the connection between faith and mental health. Dr. Harding IV is the grandnephew of President Warren G. Harding and grandson of George T. Harding II, the first Adventist psychiatrist, who is also known for starting the Harding Hospital in Columbus in 1916, which merged with Ohio State University Medical Center in 1999.
