Current through Vol. 41, No. 13, March 15, 2024
(a)
Information included in directory. The Board shall publish a directory listing annually of all psychologists currently licensed as psychologists [Title 59 O.S. 2001, Section 1369 ]. The listing shall include the licensee's name, business address and telephone number, doctoral degree and date, department and university granting the degree, major program of doctoral study, license number, and date licensed. The listing will also indicate if the licensee is Board Certified with the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP), has Health Service Psychologist certification (HSP), or has acquired a different major program of study based upon formal, doctoral-level retraining and completion of experience requirements consistent with the new program of study.
(b)
Specialty listings in the directory.
(1)
Continuation of specialty listings established by previous Board rules. Psychologists licensed under previous Board rules which included the listing of a specialty, will continue to have that specialty listed in place of "major program of study".
(2)
Listing of major program of study. The major program of study will be taken directly from the official transcript and only the doctoral program will be listed. However, if the transcript is nonspecific, e.g., "psychology", the Board will specify the program from written information supplied by the head of the department from which the doctoral degree was obtained. No major program of study will be listed unless the Board has determined that the psychologist has satisfactorily completed all requirements for licensure including postdoctoral experience consistent with that program listing. If an applicant for licensure or a psychologist was formally admitted to a doctoral retraining program and completed all academic and training requirements for a new major program of study, proof of such admission and of satisfactory completion of that retraining program must include written verification from the university department head.
(3)
Retraining. Accumulation of courses is not accepted in lieu of a formal retraining program. The formal retraining program must be a defined, integrated, doctoral level program in a regionally accredited university. Only a completed formal retraining program, supplemented by work experience consistent with that program and necessary to meet licensure requirements, will be listed in the directory.
(4)
Multiple listings. A psychologist may have more than one "major program of study" listed, based on formal and full doctoral retraining, provided that all licensure requirements are met for each program.
(5)
Health Service Psychologist. The purpose of establishing a Health Service Psychologist certification is to protect the public, and to assist agencies and the courts by defining those psychologists who are, by training and supervised experience, qualified to provide professional psychological services to the public. In order to qualify for certification as a Health Service Psychologist, a psychologist licensed in the State of Oklahoma must:
(A) be Board Certified by the American Board of Professional Psychology, or
(B) have two years of supervised experience in health services psychology, one of which is a doctoral internship consistent with their university doctoral program in an organized health services training program, and one of which was post-doctoral at a site where health services are provided.
