Traditionally, psychiatrists, or individuals with medical degrees, have been responsible for prescribing medication. In the last few years, there has been some debate as to whether or not licensed clinical psychologists (so people with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology) should be allowed to prescribe medications. But in general, psychiatrists hold prescriptive authority while psychologists do not.
The salary range for psychologists can vary depending on factors such as location, experience, and specific field of psychology. Generally, the maximum salary range for psychologists can exceed $100,000 to $150,000 per year, with some specialized fields such as industrial-organizational psychology or neuropsychology potentially offering higher salaries.
Psychiatrists in the United States typically make an average annual salary of around $220,000, but this can vary based on location, experience, and other factors.
Psychologists' salaries can vary widely based on factors like experience, location, and specialty. On average, a psychologist in the United States makes around $80,000 per year, but this can range from $50,000 to over $120,000 depending on the individual circumstances.
Funny question that one. All psychologists deal with mental health in one way or another. It really depends on what sort of mental health issue you have or want advice on. Clinical psychologists are generally the ones you want when it comes to these sorts of issues. If the mental health issue requires medication they will generally refer you onto a psychiatrist as psychologists cant provide medication. Hope this helps :)

A psychiatrist is a trained medic and is permitted to prescribe medication. Usually a psychologist is not permitted to prescribe medication, althoug this varies from country to country.

Juvenile record, or not, that's a pretty serious charge. You will have to check with your state's licensing agency for this profession to determine if they will issue you a license.
No. They both only fantasized about being together.

It is legal for them to fill out their will if on medication. If the medication impairs their judgement it could be an issue, but some medications are needed.
