Would it be possible to pursue a career as a Psychiatrist and a Neuropsychologist?

[SantiniHoudini]

I am quite interested in becoming a Psychiatrist, I have known a lot of people with a mental illness and many members of my family suffer from mental illness, and it has caused me to gain a great interest in being a psychiatrist and helping others. But I am also very very passionate about Neuropsychology. Would it be possible to study to become both? If so, what steps would I need to take, because this is what I want to do for my life. I am currently an undergrad, but I've always dreamed of this since I was a child.

yes its possible

That's pretty cool. There are very few psychiatrists now that do any real behavioral therapy but many studies show that both CBC AND medication is the best way to treat mental illness
