This is the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist. Meaning, you will need a bachelors degree (typically 4yrs) and then attend a medical school (another 4yrs) You will also need to complete some form of an internship called a residency(3-10yrs) To become a psychologist however, I've heard that you need a masters degree and I've also heard you need a docterets degree.
