Currently psychologists who complete additional specialized training and earn a certificate (or some other kind of designation) can prescribe meds in Louisiana and New Mexico. There are a few psychologists in the armed forces who also can prescribe. The armed forces (I forget which branch) developed the first training program and model for prescribing psychologists.
Many other states are pursuing this, but it's a slow process.
