Without the actual definitions in front of me I would say that cognition is the ability to understand something and psychology is the study of the way the brain reacts to stimulus. So the difference would be cognition is an ability to learn, while psychology is an attempt for someone else to explain how someone thinks.

Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can prescribe medication and provide biological interventions for mental health disorders, while psychologists are trained in assessing and treating mental health issues through therapy and counseling. Psychiatrists often focus more on the medical aspects of mental health, while psychologists focus on understanding human behavior and emotions.
Theres a small difference only.

Thinking is a mental process of actively processing information in order to form thoughts, make decisions, or solve problems. Cognition, on the other hand, is a broader term that encompasses all mental processes related to acquiring, processing, storing, and using information, including thinking, memory, problem-solving, perception, and language. In essence, thinking is a specific aspect of cognition.
The term cognitive Psychology refers to a branch of Psychology that focuses entirely on mental processes. It models the mind as a limited capacity processor. It also assumes there are processes between stimulus and response. This includes ordering, manipulating and storing information. These processes are together referred to as "cognition" which is why the approach is called "cognitive psychology."
