Unlike a psychiatrist a psychologist has not attended medical school so is not a physician. However, they usually have a PhD or a PsyD which take 5-7 years to complete after a bachelors. Each state regulates who can be licensed as a psychologist but it typically requires a doctoral degree. So you can and should refer to them as "doctor" like anyone who has a PhD.
