Why Is a Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) Not Considered a Psychologist?

Question by Think about it: Why is a Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) not considered a psychologist?
wikipedia says that psychiatrists and clinical psychologists are psychologists, but that an MFT is not necessarily one. You’d think a psychiatrist who we think of someone who just prescribes meds wouldn’t be considered a psychologist and some answers here say they’re not really trained to listen to patients problems, so why isn’t an MFT considered a psychologist?
thanks worrier!

What Kind of Psychologist Do I Need to See?

Question by John: What kind of psychologist do I need to see?
For psychology, we were given an assignment. Here is the assignment, “Each student has been given a “situation”, “disorder,” or a small problem when you attended class today. For the first part of this assignment you are to seek counseling from a Psychologist to assist you with your particular situation. In your paragraph, make sure you write about what type of Psychologist you would seek, what approach would they use to assist you with your situation, and how would they help you using that approach.” My disorder is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Care to help?
This is for a college course.

How to Get Into Psychology ?

Question by please help!: How to get into psychology ?
I’m really interested in getting into psychology. Specifically a physiatrist that prescribes medicine. I’m an average b-a student. How can, and what are the steps, into making this possible?

Answer by T K5
A physiatrist is a medical doctor (M.D.) or doctor of osteopathy (D.O.) who is board-certified in physiatry (also known as “physical medicine and rehabilitation”). This is an entirely different field from psychiatry or psychology.

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (M.D.) or doctor of osteopathy (D.O.) who is board-certified in psychiatry and neurology.

A Ph.D.-level licensed clinical psychologist may be authorized to perform psychological testing (with training and expertise), and offer talk therapies but usually may not prescribed medications–even “psych meds”. The exceptions, which are rare, is when the Ph.D.-level licensed clinical psychologist is ALSO a licensed psychiatrist (M.D. or D.O.)–or is ALSO an M.D. or D.O. in another specialty (e.g. family practice, internal medicine, emergency medicine, pediatrics, ob-gyn, neurology) AND has the knowledge and experience and training to legally and ethically evaluate patients and prescribe such medications.
