would it be accurate to say that?

psychology and psychiatry both deal with people's subjective life experience, the difference between them being that pshchiatry tackles the subject from a scientific point of view. while psychology does it feom a more phylosophic point of view?

    Not really,

    Psychology deals with people's experience, and has a focus on making Dysfunctional-Dynamics, Functional-Dynamics.

    Psychiatry deals with bio-chemistry, and the neurological factors.

    In comparison it's basically that Psychology = General Practice/Family Doctor, Psychiatry = Specialist Treatment, Neuroscience = Surgery.

    No, I think both are scientific. Psychology is quite structured.
