I may be wrong, but, here is my understanding:
Psychopharmocology is a subspecialty of psychiatry.
A psychiatrist might do both therapy and psychopharm, but it seems that more and more, those who specialize in psychopharm seem to be doing only that, as the demand is high, and there don't seem to be enough psychopharmocologists with available hours, and more and more people are being referred for psychopharm but not for therapy.
