✓ Yes — compact transfer
Yes. Kansas is a member of the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT), so a Licensed Psychologist holding a multistate/compact license can practice in KS without re-applying. PSYPACT is robust for psychologist spouses — covers both telehealth and temp in-person across nearly 40 states.

K.S.A. 48-3406 requires every Kansas licensing body to issue an expedited license within 15 days to a military spouse already licensed in another state, and the BSRB that licenses psychologists meets the broad statutory definition of a licensing body.
