Go to University or College and take a bachelors of Arts or Science which specializes in Psychology. Then you attend the same or another Collegue or University to get a Master's degree, and then an other to obtain a PhD or Medical Degree.

Psychiatrist can write medical prescriptions, whereas psychologists cannot. This is why Psychiatrist require significantly more scientific and medical education.
