• Jurisdiction: Kansas
• Ch. 74: STATE BOARDS, COMMISSIONS AND AUTHORITIES
• Art. 53: REGULATION OF PSYCHOLOGISTS

Text

(a) If, in evaluating any applicant for licensure as a master's level psychologist, the board finds that the applicant is deficient in the qualifications or in the quality of the applicant's educational experience required by K.S.A. 74-5363 or 74-5375, and amendments thereto, as applicable, or by rules and regulations adopted by the board, the board may require the applicant to fulfill remedial or other requirements, as the board may prescribe.
(b) A person who is completing requirements prescribed by the board under subsection (a) may apply to the board for a provisional license as a master's level psychologist on a form and in a manner prescribed by the board. The board may issue a provisional license to practice master's level psychology. A provisional license shall expire upon the earlier of the date that the board issues or denies a license to practice master's level psychology or 12 months after the date of issuance of the provisional license. No provisional license shall be renewed, and no provisional license shall be issued again, upon any subsequent application for the same license level.
(c) A person practicing master's level psychology with a provisional license may not use the title "licensed master's level psychologist" or "licensed clinical psychotherapist" or the initials "LMLP" or "LCP," independently. The word "licensed" may be used by such person only when preceded by the word "provisional."
