I have been under the impression that a psychologist has a phd or psyd whereas other individuals practicing psychology are called therapists or counselors.

To add to ajpresto's explanation: The term "psychologist" applies to both master and doctorate levels of education. Each state in the nation identifies the legal requirements for practicing in that state, so there can be variability from state to state. That explains why licensing and certification may mean different things in different states.
Clear as mud?
