Can you still get a certification in psychology if you have a misdemeanor on your record?

Nobody's Perfect

It might depend on the specifics of the misdemeanor and what consideration is given to the misdemeanor by the entity which certifies Psychologists.

If you don't by chance still "live" with your mother at the Bates Motel, you have a pretty good shot at becoming certified.

Be honest about the misdemeanor with those who need to know such things and you'll probably find out that most folks appreciate honesty more than they disapprove of misdemeanors.

P.S. It might make for a good Psychological study to record the events of your becoming certified.

Good Luck.
