PSYPACT Licensed Providers

...

PSYPACT, short for The Psychological Interjurisdictional Compact, is an interstate agreement designed to enable psychologists to practice across state borders. Similar to the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact (IMLC) for physicians and the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) for nurses, PSYPACT streamlines the process for psychologists to provide services both through telehealth and temporary in-person interactions across state boundaries.


Purpose and Benefits:

  • Patient Access: PSYPACT aims to enhance patient access to mental health care by allowing psychologists to serve clients in participating states.

  • Continuity of Care: It facilitates continuity of care for patients who relocate across state lines.

  • Underserved Populations: PSYPACT enables psychologists to provide care to underserved populations, including those who are geographically isolated or in need of specialty services.

  • Public Protection: It offers a greater degree of public protection and provides a mechanism for addressing complaints.


Eligibility:

  • Psychologists Only: PSYPACT exclusively applies to licensed psychologists.

  • Doctoral-Level Psychologists: It specifically covers psychologists with doctoral-level degrees.
