HB1145

Louisiana HB1145 amends the definition of "psychologist" to clarify who may represent themselves as such.

Louisiana HB1145 amends the definition of "psychologist" to clarify who may represent themselves as such. The bill specifies that a person represents himself as a psychologist by using titles or descriptions incorporating the words "psychology", "psychological", or "psychologist", or by implying qualification in any area of psychology. The bill removes the term "psychological" from the definition and retains the rest of the present law. This change aims to ensure that only licensed professionals can identify themselves as psychologists.
