My Opinion

NO!

  • There has been great debate about whether or not a psychologist should have the right to prescribe medication to their clients.
  • The argument that psychologist do not have the same training as physicians.
  • Legal issues
  • Psychologist will not move to areas that are in lack of mental health attention
