Both psychologists and psychiatrists deal with mental health issues, but their approaches are different. The difference is:
- The psychiatrist studies for a medical degree to become a doctor of medicine (M. D. in Psychiatry). They have to appear in the NEET UG exam to attain MBBS and are called doctors.

Hello, You can work as a researcher or become an assistant professor after earning a master's degree in psychology. You need to participate in UGC NET for this (University Grants Commission National Eligibility Test). The National Testing Agency hosts the exam twice a year.

Hello, Psychologists and psychiatrists are two distinct professions that address issues on various levels. After MBBS the former is a PG in medicine. Later, one might pursue a B.A. Or M.A. With psychology as a major. To become a psychiatrist, you must first pass the NEET entrance exam, receive admission, graduate from the MBBS programme as a doctor, and then pass the NEET PG entrance exam to enrol in this specialty programme. However, you can enrol in a B.A. Programme with psychology as your major subject if you want to become a psychologist. I wish you well.

Together, psychologists and psychiatrists plan and deliver the best therapy for patients. Psychosocial counselling sessions with patients are frequently held once a week by psychologists. Depending on the patient's clinical needs, psychiatrists may SEE their patients weekly or monthly for psychotherapy or psychopharmacology. Both professionals work together to aid in the healing of the mind; neither is superior than the other.

Clinical psychology is one of the largest specialty areas within psychology. Having a passion for discovery, learning and listening are part of what it takes to be successful as a psychologist who delivers clinical or counseling services.

Up to you. Depends on why you need a Ph.D. It is an investment in time, effort, money and resources. You have to weigh the benefits of getting a Ph.D. with that of your needs. Then you can go for it. As I can see your discipline so much specialised, a Ph.D. under normal circumstances will be very valuable. On the other hand if you are a specialist in this area and earning a fabulous money then you have to see what a Ph.D. will do for you. Thank you for the queries.
