    SNAP L&B! Haha. Luckily, we agree with each other

    I will also add if I may that psychiatrists are able to prescribe medicine (eg antidepressants) due to their being medical doctors.

    In terms of techniques, I find that counsellors tend to use pure person centred techniques (talk therapy), whereas psychologists are more likely to use a wider range of techniques, depending on what they mesh with. Like L&B said, some are from the behavioural school of thought and some are more mindfulness/narrative based.
