| | Psychologist |
| | Psychologists who hold doctoral degrees, can use the title ‘Dr. ’ Psychologists who practice (and hence those who are licensed) typically will have completed their graduate university training in clinical psychology, counselling psychology, clinical neuropsychology or educational/school psychology. | | | Although psychologists are licensed generally and not in specific specialty areas, they are required to declare their areas of competency to the regulatory body and required to practice within the bounds of their competence. | | | Following the information-gathering phase which may or may not include psychological testing, it is important that the psychologist discuss with the client (and/or his or her parent or guardian if a child) what he or she thinks is wrong and what he can offer in the way of help. |

| | To Become a Psychologist |
| | And, because California law reserves the title psychologist to a licensed practitioner, I won’t be discussing fields of psychology such as social psychology, developmental psychology, cognitive and experimental psychology, biological psychology, or industrial-organizational psychology which are unlicensed and usually focus on teaching, research, or corporate consultation. | | | This means that only a person who has passed the state licensing exams, and who therefore has a psychologist license, may call himself or herself a psychologist. | | | Then, to get your psychologist license (in California) you will have to study for and pass the licensing exams, which in California are the National Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP) and the California Jurisprudence and Professional Ethics Examination (CJPEE). |
