The first step on your journey to becoming a licensed psychologist in the state of Tennessee is completing your education. While majoring in psychology can help in your higher education, it is not a requirement at this level. This can help give you an advantage on your doctorate admissions but is not required as it can be part of your doctorate program.
The final step in your educational journey to achieve your license to practice is completing your PsyD or P. D in psychology. To be able to qualify for a license in Tennessee you must receive your doctorate from a program that is accredited by the American Psychological Association or one that has been approved by the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards.
Programs will also need to include a month internship in the final year. Once you have completed your educational requirement, you will need to complete a few more steps before obtaining your license.
