However, entering this field can be competitive and requires a deep understanding of psychology and specialized education. Obtaining a psychologist license is usually a necessary step to practice professionally. Even if you have extensive education and training in the field, minor errors during the application process can end up preventing you from obtaining your psychologist license. Even small mistakes on your application can lead to the denial of your license and significant challenges to beginning your career. Common reasons that psychologist license applications get denied include if the applicant has: - A history of mental health issues - A criminal record - A history of substance abuse **Don**’**t let past challenges prevent you from achieving your career goals**. While these factors may complicate your application, they usually do not automatically disqualify you from obtaining a psychologist license. The [Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council](https://bhec.texas.gov/) may require you to demonstrate that any prior issues have been resolved before you can receive a license. An experienced psychologist license application lawyer can assist in addressing these concerns and clearing the way for you to obtain your professional license. Your lawyer will also˛ help you overcome any problems arising from your personal history that could complicate the application process, increasing your chances of success. ![Bertolino LLP](https://www.belolaw.com/wp-content/themes/bertolino-llp/assets/app/img/bertolino-llp.png) **Choose the Best Way to Contact Our Team** Call, text, request a call, or use our calendar and schedule an appointment.

They worked hard to get me a great result to save my Texas State Teaching Certification. A big thank you to Attorney Kerry Bloodsaw and her legal team. Posted on Google Ashley Perez 134 days ago I cannot express how grateful I am for Ms. Kerry Bloodsaw! I am a physician who applied for board exam accommodations in medical school, and Ms. Bloodsaw provided me with invaluable information and guidance. I received accommodations approval in only a few days (the average wait time is 2 months). I was told I would never be able to receive accommodations for my condition, but Ms. Bloodsaw made the process seem easy. Also very affordable compared to other firms I spoke with. Thank you to Ms. Bloodsaw and the Bertolino staff! Motion for promotion to partner! Posted on Google Vanessa V. 138 days ago Working with Mrs. Acklin and the team at Bertolino Law Firm was an excellent experience. I recommend this firm without reservation. As a licensed professional, earning and maintaining a license is something we work incredibly hard to achieve. Throughout our careers, we often encounter gray areas where we do our best to navigate complex situations with professionalism and integrity. Sometimes, however, someone may disagree with how a situation was handled and choose to file a complaint with the licensing board. Going through that process can be incredibly stressful. Standing behind your decisions while facing uncertainty about your professional future is not something anyone wants to experience—especially when your work impacts clients, students, colleagues, and the many people who place their trust in you. Our reach often extends a lot farther than most think. When I first got my compliant I sought support and I wanted someone who understood this process, someone who had walked alongside other licensed professionals and could help me understand what to expect while guiding me through each step with confidence and honesty. Working with Mrs. Acklin and the team at Bertolino Law Firm was an excellent experience. Mrs. Acklin was knowledgeable, compassionate, responsive, and strategic. She helped me develop an approach that I felt comfortable with, prepared me thoroughly, and provided outstanding legal counsel and representation throughout the process. Thanks to their guidance, my matter reached a favorable outcome with my licensing board. I am incredibly grateful for their professionalism and support during one of the most stressful experiences of my career. When your professional reputation and livelihood are on the line, having an attorney you can genuinely trust makes all the difference. Just as our clients place their trust in us as helping professionals, I was grateful to place my trust in Bertolino Law Firm. I highly recommend them to any licensed professional seeking experienced, thoughtful, and dedicated representation.
