@Sheltiemom, in my state, there are tons of psychologists working in state run mental health clinics. In order for a patient to be seen in one of these clinics, they have to have a severe mental illness. So, the psychiatrists would be providing meds and the psychologists would be doing talk therapy. And both providers do diagnoses at these clinics were SEVERELY mentally ill patients are seen.

As a PA, I've worked at one of these clinics for a little while.
