What is the limit on how long a person licensed in another state can practice in Pennsylvania without notifying the State Board of Psychology?

In Pennsylvania, a person licensed in another state can practice temporarily without notifying the State Board of Psychology for a period of 30 days. This allows professionals who are visiting Pennsylvania to provide their services for a limited time without undergoing the full licensure process in the state.

The duration is specifically intended to facilitate the practice of psychology by out-of-state professionals during events such as conferences or workshops, ensuring flexibility yet maintaining a degree of regulation. After this 30-day period, the out-of-state practitioner must apply for a license or notify the appropriate board if they wish to continue practicing in Pennsylvania.

Understanding this timeframe is crucial for psychologists who may be participating in clinical work or consultations across state lines. It's important to check any regulations related to licensure to ensure compliance.
