Admission Requirements
Applicants for training at IPPNJ must have, or be eligible to have,
legal entitlement or licensure to practice psychotherapy independently
in one of the recognized mental health professions. Applicants with
a Doctorate in Psychology who are not yet licensed are eligible
for training at IPPNJ, provided that their clinical practices are
confined to agencies where they can practice legally or that they
possess a provisional permit to practice privately. Certificates
of completion will not be granted, however, until they have achieved
licensure. It is the Institute's understanding of New Jersey law
that the independent practice of psychotherapy is restricted primarily
to social workers, licensed psychologists, psychiatrists, psychiatric
nurses, and pastoral counselors.
