As a psychotherapist, I cannot diagnose or prescribe medication for mental health issues. However, a psychiatrist is qualified to diagnose and prescribe medication for such issues. Additionally, both family doctors and nurse practitioners have the authority to prescribe medication. Psychologists can diagnose and provide treatment for mental health problems and disorders but are not authorized to prescribe medication.
