A psychiatrist with an M.D. has medical training and can use biological interventions such as medications to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder. Clinical social workers and psychologists with either a Psy.D. or Ph.D. may use therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, but they do not have the medical training to prescribe medications.
