Does Umar Have a License -- NO!!

Umar Johnson let us know that the State Board of Psychology is going to have a hearing allegations that include holding himself out as a person who is authorized to practice psychology, to provide psycho-educational evaluations and psychological counseling.

From:  Pennsylvania State Board of Psychology

Umar Johnson is accused of doing so without proper authorization (i.e. a license).  This hearing isn't about "de-licensing" Umar Johnson because Umar Johnson NEVER had a license.

According to the Pennsylvania Professional Psychologists Act, a board can lawfully suspend or revoke a license are as follows:

1. Failing to demonstrate the qualifications or standards for a license contained in this act or regulations of the board.
2. Making misleading, deceptive, untrue or fraudulent representations in the practice of psychology.
3. Practicing fraud or deceit in obtaining a license to practice psychology.
4. Displaying gross incompetence, negligence or misconduct in carrying on the practice of psychology.
5. Submitting a false or deceptive biennial registration to the board.
6. Being convicted of a felony in any state or Federal court or being convicted of the equivalent of a felony in any foreign country, or being convicted of a misdemeanor in the practice of psychology. As used in this clause the term “convicted” includes a finding or verdict of guilt, an admission of guilt or a plea of nolo contendere or receiving probation without verdict, disposition in lieu of trial or an Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition in the disposition of felony charges.
7. Having a license to practice psychology suspended, revoked or refused or receiving other disciplinary action by the proper psychology licensing authority of another state, territory or country.
8. Being unable to practice psychology with reasonable skill and safety by reason of illness, drunkenness, excessive use of drugs, narcotics, chemicals or any other type of material, or as a result of any mental or physical condition. In enforcing this clause, the board shall, upon probable cause, have authority to compel a psychologist to submit to a mental or physical examination by a physician or a psychologist approved by the board. Failure of a psychologist to submit to such examination when directed by the board, unless such failure is due to circumstances beyond his or her control, shall constitute an admission of the allegations against him or her, consequent upon which a default and final order may be entered without the taking of testimony or presentation of evidence. A psychologist affected under this clause shall at reasonable intervals, as determined by the board, be afforded an opportunity to demonstrate that he or she can resume a competent practice of psychology with reasonable skill and safety.
9. Violating a lawful regulation promulgated by the board, including, but not limited to, ethical regulations, or violating a lawful order of the board previously entered in a disciplinary proceeding.
10. Knowingly aiding, assisting, procuring or advising any unlicensed person to practice psychology, contrary to this act or regulations of the board.
11. Committing immoral or unprofessional conduct.  Unprofessional conduct shall include any departure from, or failure to conform to, the standards of acceptable and prevailing psychological practice. Actual injury to a client need not be established.
12. Soliciting any engagement to perform professional services by any direct, in-person or uninvited soliciting through the use of coercion, duress, compulsion, intimidation, threats, overreaching or harassing conduct.
13. Failing to perform any statutory obligation placed upon a licensed psychologist.
14. Intentionally submitting to any third-party payor a claim for a service or treatment which was not actually provided to a client.
15. Failing to maintain professional records in accordance with regulations prescribed by the board.

The items above that are bold are the items for which I suspect Umar Johnson could be guilty.  The items that are bold and italicized are the items that I suspect could be humdinger, slam dunk, no-doubt-about-it guilty.

We shall soon see.
