(a) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to prevent the teaching of psychology, the conduct of psychological research, or the provision of services or consultation to organizations or institutions, if such teaching, research, or service or consultation does not involve the direct practice of psychology with individuals or groups of individuals who are the intended beneficiaries of such services. Individuals holding an earned doctoral degree in psychology from an institution of higher education may use the title “psychologist” in conjunction with the activities permitted by this subsection.

(b) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to prevent an individual who is a qualified member of other recognized professions from rendering services consistent with the individual’s professional training, the code of ethics of the individual’s respective profession, and the laws of this State, if the individual does not represent themselves to the public by using any title or description stating or implying that the individual is a psychologist, a licensed psychology associate, a doctoral-level psychological assistant, or a master’s-level psychological assistant, that the individual is licensed as a psychologist or licensed psychology associate, or that the individual is registered as a doctoral-level psychological assistant or a master’s-level psychological assistant.

(c) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to restrict the activities of rabbis, priests, ministers, or the clergy of any church, synagogue, religious denomination, or sect, if the activities are within the scope of the performance of their regular or specialized ministerial duties and no separate charge is made, or if such activities are performed, whether with or without charge, for, or under auspices or sponsorship, individually, or in conjunction with others, of an established and legally recognizable church, synagogue, religious denomination, or sect; and the person rendering service remains accountable to its established authority; and if they do not represent themselves to be psychologists, licensed psychological associates, doctoral-level psychological assistants, or master’s-level psychological assistants.

(d) Individuals who have been certified as school psychologists by the Department of Education are permitted to use the title “school psychologist” or “certified school psychologist.” But the individuals are restricted in their practice to employment within those settings under the purview of the Department of Education and the State Board of Education.
