Speaker A: Is a psychologist the same as a psychiatrist?

Speaker A: So a psychologist talks, a psychiatrist prescribes?

Speaker A: Example sentences?
Speaker B: "She saw a psychologist"; "the psychologist studied stress"; "a sports psychologist joined the team" — therapy, research and sport.
Speaker A: Common mistakes?
Speaker B: Don't pronounce the p in psychologist, because the p is silent, giving sy-KOL-oh-jist.
Speaker A: Close relatives?
Speaker B: "Therapist" the everyday cousin, "psychiatrist" the medical twin, "counsellor" the talking alternative. The word keeps its caring charm!
