What is one ground for disciplinary action against a psychologist?

The use of a false name or impersonating another practitioner is a serious breach of ethical and legal standards in psychology that can lead to disciplinary actions. This behavior undermines trust in the profession, misleads clients, and can create significant safety issues, as clients rely on accurate information about their practitioners’ qualifications. Impersonation can also lead to unqualified individuals providing services, which could harm clients and violate laws governing professional practice. Given the gravity of these violations, licensing boards take such actions seriously and often pursue disciplinary measures, including suspension or revocation of a psychologist's license, to protect the public and maintain the integrity of the profession.
