The Wyoming Board of Psychology licenses psychologists in Wyoming. Wyoming is a PSYPACT® participating jurisdiction. That means a Wyoming license can serve as your declared PSYPACT® home state, and psychologists licensed elsewhere in the compact can already deliver telepsychology to clients located here. Wyoming offers a licensure-by-endorsement route for psychologists already licensed elsewhere.
Wyoming Psychology License Requirements
A doctoral degree in psychology, with official transcripts sent to the board directly by the institution.
Supervised professional experience as Wyoming Board of Psychology defines it. Definitions of qualifying supervision differ between boards — confirm how your hours will be counted before filing.
A passing EPPP score, transferred officially from ASPPB. Note that individual boards set their own passing scores, so a score accepted elsewhere does not automatically satisfy this one.
Licensure by endorsement: Wyoming offers licensure by endorsement on any of four bases: a current ASPPB Certificate of Professional Qualification in good standing; National Register credentialing; ABPP certification; or a licence in good standing in a jurisdiction whose requirements equal or exceed Wyoming's — with at least five continuous years of professional practice on that licence.
ASPPB Certificate of Professional Qualification (CPQ) in good standing.
National Register of Health Service Psychologists credentialing.
ABPP certification.
A licence in good standing from a jurisdiction with equal or greater requirements, plus five continuous years of practice.
Fingerprint-based criminal background check.
Disclosure and verification of any disciplinary action in any jurisdiction.
How Much Does an Wyoming Psychology License Cost?
| Fee | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| EPPP or score transfer | $0 | Charged by ASPPB, not by the state. ASPPB has signalled an additional skills component alongside the existing knowledge examination — confirm the current structure and cost with ASPPB rather than budgeting from an older figure. |
| Licensure verification from each prior jurisdiction | $0 | Charged by each issuing board. Every board that has ever licensed you must send one, including lapsed licenses. Amounts vary by state. |
| Fingerprint / background check | $0 | Vendor-dependent. Verify with Wyoming Board of Psychology before scheduling — out-of-order submissions are typically not refunded. |
Fees above are paid to Wyoming and ASPPB. Our service fee is separate — see pricing.
We handle the Wyoming application end-to-end.
Eligibility screening, document prep, board follow-ups, and tracking — so you don't lose a board meeting cycle to a missing form.

Typical Processing
Three to six months from a complete filing is a common range, and complex files run longer. The board cannot begin substantive review until out-of-state verifications and official transcripts have arrived.
Recommended Lead Time
Start at least six months before you need to practise in Wyoming.
Published processing targets rarely survive contact with a file that has a documentation gap in it. The controllable part is the front end — pathway determination, transcripts requested with correct routing, and verifications ordered from every board that has ever licensed you. Confirm current targets directly with Wyoming Board of Psychology.
Where Wyoming Applications Get Delayed
Four doors, three of them credential-based. A CPQ, National Register credentialing, or ABPP each open endorsement on their own — the five-year practice route is only one of four. Applicants who hold a credential and file on the experience route document more than they need to.
"Five continuous years" on the experience route. Continuity matters, not just the total. A break in licensure inside that period can close this particular door while leaving the credential routes open.
Assuming PSYPACT® replaces the Wyoming license. An APIT® lets a psychologist licensed elsewhere in the compact deliver telepsychology to clients in Wyoming. It does not authorize in-person practice here, and it is not a Wyoming license.
Forgetting a lapsed license. Verification is required from every jurisdiction that has ever licensed you, including licenses you let expire years ago. An omission stalls the file and raises a candour question that is far more troublesome than the verification would have been.
Transcripts sent by the applicant. Boards and ASPPB alike require official transcripts sent directly by the institution or its clearinghouse. A sealed envelope you forward is not accepted, and the failure is silent — you believe it is delivered while the file waits.
Assuming another state's supervised-hours count transfers. Definitions of qualifying supervision differ meaningfully between boards. Hours that satisfied your original licensure may be counted differently here.
Renewing Your Wyoming Psychology License
Renewal Cycle
Verify your renewal cycle and expiration date with Wyoming Board of Psychology. Renewal cycles vary between annual and biennial, and some states renew the whole profession on a fixed date rather than on each licensee's anniversary.
CE Requirement
Wyoming requires continuing education on the renewal cycle, and most states mandate specific content areas. Verify the current hour count and required topics with Wyoming Board of Psychology — mandated subject lists change more often than the hour totals do. If you also hold an ASPPB E.Passport, its three hours of telepsychology-specific CE are a separate requirement on a separate cycle and do not satisfy state CE.
Late Grace Period
Practising on a lapsed Wyoming license is not authorized regardless of how briefly it lapsed. Verify the delinquency and reinstatement procedure with Wyoming Board of Psychology.
How Wyoming Licenses Psychologists
The Wyoming Board of Psychology licenses psychologists in Wyoming. As in every state, licensure rests on a doctoral degree in psychology, supervised professional experience, and examination — but the specifics differ more than psychologists expect, particularly in how supervised hours are defined and whether a state-specific jurisprudence examination applies.
Licensure by Endorsement
Wyoming offers licensure by endorsement on any of four bases: a current ASPPB Certificate of Professional Qualification in good standing; National Register credentialing; ABPP certification; or a licence in good standing in a jurisdiction whose requirements equal or exceed Wyoming's — with at least five continuous years of professional practice on that licence.
Routes worth checking before you file:
- ASPPB Certificate of Professional Qualification (CPQ) in good standing.
- National Register of Health Service Psychologists credentialing.
- ABPP certification.
- A licence in good standing from a jurisdiction with equal or greater requirements, plus five continuous years of practice.
One general caution: endorsement is not a transfer. The board still evaluates whether your education, supervised experience, examination, and professional history are equivalent to its own standards, and it can conclude that they are not. Older training histories and non-standard program structures draw the most scrutiny.
PSYPACT® and Wyoming
Wyoming is a participating jurisdiction, which is useful in both directions.
If you hold a Wyoming license, Wyoming can serve as your declared PSYPACT® home state. With an ASPPB E.Passport and an Authority to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT®) on top of it, your telepsychology practice reaches every other participating jurisdiction without a separate license in each.
If you are licensed elsewhere in the compact, your APIT® already authorizes telepsychology to clients located in Wyoming — no Wyoming license needed for that work. It does not authorize in-person practice here. For temporary in-person work that is the separate IPC and TAP® route, capped at 30 calendar days per calendar year.
One constraint matters more than it first appears: under the APIT® you must be physically located in your declared home state while delivering telepsychology. A Wyoming license held by someone who lives elsewhere does not make Wyoming a workable home state. Choose the state you actually sit in.
What We Handle
Pathway determination before you spend a non-refundable fee, transcript and EPPP score routing, verification requests to every jurisdiction that has ever licensed you, fingerprint sequencing, and Wyoming Board of Psychology correspondence through to issuance. Where Wyoming is your intended PSYPACT® home state, we file the E.Passport and APIT® on top of it.
