How do you become a psychologist in Pennsylvania?

To become a licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania, you must earn a doctoral degree in psychology from an APA-accredited program, complete a supervised postdoctoral experience of at least one year, and pass the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology. Licensure is granted by the Pennsylvania State Board of Psychology, which also requires a jurisprudence review. Most clinical positions in the state require an active Pennsylvania license before starting.

Which companies hire psychologists in Pennsylvania?

Employers hiring psychologists in Pennsylvania right now include Supportive Care, The IMA, and Allegheny Health Network, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Pennsylvania's large integrated health systems, state behavioral health agencies, and academic medical centers tend to post the most consistent volume across clinical, school, and forensic psychology roles.

Which Pennsylvania cities have the most psychologist jobs?

Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Reading have the most psychologist openings in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia leads because of its dense concentration of academic medical centers, VA facilities, and community mental health organizations, while Pittsburgh's demand is driven by UPMC and Allegheny Health Network, and Harrisburg reflects the state government's large behavioral health and corrections workforce.

Are there remote psychologist jobs in Pennsylvania?

Yes, and more than many clinical roles allow. About 33% of psychologist openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting the growth of telepsychology platforms and telehealth-enabled outpatient services. Roles focused on therapy and assessment consultations are most likely to offer remote or hybrid arrangements, while neuropsychological testing and school-based positions typically remain on-site.

The most realistic entry path is a postdoctoral fellowship, and Pennsylvania's major systems including UPMC, Penn Medicine, and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia offer APA-accredited postdoctoral training programs across clinical, neuropsychology, and pediatric specialties. Candidates can also enter through psychological assistant or assessment technician roles, which provide supervised hours toward licensure. Completing your Pennsylvania State Board of Psychology application early and holding current CPR and mandated reporter credentials strengthens any new-graduate application.
