Psychiatrists are medical physicians (D.O., MBBS, or M.D.), and can prescribe medicine, they tend to offer shorter term treatment, often limited to solving crisis situations.
psychologists often are involved in testing, like IQ, ADD, etc.
psychotherapists like to help you by talking it out, helping you grow up, learn from your past, move on, taking more time to do it.
