Yes. The doctoral degree is necessary, PhD, PsyD, or EdD. Details vary by state and the courses and supervised experience, internship, and post-doctoral experience are evaluated by a state board of psychology after which examinations are administered. Many states license generically as a "psychologist" but some license by speciality and "licensed clinical psychologist" is used when appropriate. PhD is a bit more research oriented PsyD is more clinically oriented, and the older EdD when the major is in Psychology is typically in the scientist-practitioner model, a balance of research and clinical skills.
