Yes, generally psychologists might use various therapy methods or be a specialist in helping people with certain kinds of issues or goals--relationships, mental health generally, trauma, eating disorders, addictions, etc.
One pretty good place I know of that offers Masters programs in psychology fields is The Townsend Institute (https://www.cui.edu/townsend). You could look up their website and see what you think.

Hi Amaris,
If you are looking at Psychology, you do not need to go to med school. Psychiatry is the only mental health field that I know of that requires medical school. Otherwise, Psychology typically will look like getting a doctorate degree at a graduate school. There are also many other mental health fields that you can work with individuals in a similar capacity--ranging from Psychiatric nurses, mental health therapists/counselors, etc. Check out your options, because they all range in their schooling and requirements!
