The same difference between a regular psychologist and a regular psychiatrist. One's a doctor and can prescribe medicine (psychiatrist) and the other can only counsel.

A psychiatrist spent some time in medical school and can prescribe medication.
A psychologist can not prescribe medicine. They are more for someone to talk to and help you with your problems.
