Summary

The measure amends the state’s definition of “psychologist” to require a valid license for anyone using that title or offering psychological services. It bars unlicensed individuals from presenting themselves as psychologists or implying expertise in psychology. The change aims to protect the public from misrepresentation and ensure only qualified practitioners provide psychological care.
