No, Nebraska is not one of the states with prescribing privileges for psychologists. As of now, only specially trained psychologists in New Mexico, Louisiana, and some through the Department of Defense can prescribe medication.

Psychologists cannot write prescriptions, they aren't medical doctors. Psychiatrists can write prescriptions because they do have an m.d.

The answer is YES: as long as their is a short and or long term treatment plan... Nebraska is the only state other than Alaska that can write perscriptions. Their are some written test that have to be past. My brother does this! Understand the population is almost NOTHING so you will not find a regular psycho degreed doctor. NO BUSINESS
