does anyone know how many visits you have to with a therapist before they can give you a subscription for medication? will they do it on the first visit?

The others here have already said it, but therapists are generally speaking, clinical psychologists. Psychologists only have prescription privileges in two states.
As any medical doctor can prescribe a psychiatric medication, I would suggest that you see your general practitioner if you are having a hard time making an appointment with a psychiatrist.
If indicated, they can and will prescribe a medication on the first visit.
