How do you become a psychologist in Ohio?
To become a licensed psychologist in Ohio, you must hold a doctoral degree in psychology from an APA-accredited program, complete a supervised internship, and finish a postdoctoral supervised experience period before applying to the Ohio State Board of Psychology. You must then pass the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology. Once licensed, you can practice independently across clinical, school, or organizational settings in Ohio.

Ohio's large integrated health systems and its extensive network of community mental health agencies are among the most consistent sources of psychologist openings across the state.
Which Ohio cities have the most psychologist jobs?

About 44% of psychologist openings tied to Ohio are remote or hybrid as of August 2026. Telepsychology roles conducting individual therapy or psychological consultations are the most likely to be offered fully remotely.

Large Ohio employers such as OhioHealth, Nationwide Children's Hospital, and the Cleveland Clinic run accredited training programs that bring in candidates before they have independent clinical hours. Candidates who hold an Ohio associate or limited permit issued during their postdoctoral period and who can demonstrate APA-accredited training have the strongest footing when applying to staff psychologist openings.
