How to read these figures
Wyoming vs. the national figure
Each occupation is compared with its own national median from the same May 2025 release, and the national clinical psychologist salary page gives the national distribution.
Ranks count only the jurisdictions (states plus DC) where BLS publishes that occupation’s figure.
Differences are whole percentages of the national figure, rounded half away from zero, computed from the figures shown.
By estimated employment, Wyoming ranks 45th of 46 for clinical and counseling psychologists.
A median $10,690 below national
The Wyoming median of $89,890 is $10,690 below the national median of $100,580 for clinical and counseling psychologists, an 11% gap.
The hourly median tells the same story: $43.22 against $48.36 nationally, $5.14 less per hour.
Among the 48 jurisdictions where BLS publishes a median for this occupation, Wyoming ranks 31st, and the hourly median also ranks 31st. The state's reported employment of 50 ranks 45th of the 46 jurisdictions that publish both a median and an employment estimate for the occupation — a small reported workforce, which is why this page reads the distribution at the median only.
Where the Wyoming median sits in the national distribution
The Wyoming median of $89,890 sits between the national 25th percentile of $73,210 and the national median of $100,580 — above the level where the national middle half begins, but $10,690 short of the national midpoint.
Nationally, the middle half of the occupation spans $61,990, from $73,210 to $135,200.
This page reads the Wyoming distribution at the median only.
The occupation's reported employment estimate here is small, 50, so the state's percentile tails are not analysed; the table under this section shows them, and the section below explains the caveat.
What this figure covers: Clinical and counseling psychologists only.
School psychologists and "psychologists, all other" (SOC 19-3039) are separate occupations and are not in this figure.
OEWS counts wage and salary workers, so psychologists in their own private practice are not counted.
⚠️ BLS's employment estimate for this occupation in Wyoming is 50 — under 500, so these percentiles rest on a small sample.
Read the median; treat the tails with caution.
Reading an offer against these figures
Compare an offer with both medians the page prints.
An offer at $89,890 matches the Wyoming median; an offer at $100,580 matches the national median but sits $10,690 above the state figure.
For an hourly posting, $43.22 is the Wyoming hourly median and $48.36 the national one, so a rate between the two sits above the state middle and below the national one.
Remember what the row describes: BLS's clinical and counseling psychologists employed for wages, not every title Wyoming licenses.
An offer above $100,580 clears the national median; this page does not place it in the Wyoming distribution, because the state's percentile tails are not analysed here.
What this figure does and does not describe
This row is the BLS occupation for clinical and counseling psychologists, not a figure for one Wyoming licence.
Nor is the row a count of licence holders: OEWS classifies workers by job duties, not by the credential they hold.
It also does not split the occupation by credential or stage: it does not separate licensed psychologists from psychological residents, doctoral graduates completing postdoctoral supervised experience under state rules, from holders of the state's two supervised certificates — the Psychological Practitioner certificate, open to master's or doctoral graduates, and the specialist certificate for practice in educational settings — or from holders of the provisional licence the state's Board of Psychology may issue, under conditions the statutes set, to an applicant who does not yet meet every licensure requirement.
The state's licensure pages linked under this section own the title rules; check which credential a posting asks for before comparing its pay with this row.

Why the analysis stops at the median
Wyoming's row for clinical and counseling psychologists carries a small reported workforce: BLS counts 50 in the occupation.
That is why this page quotes the median, the hourly median and the ranks, and stops there.
The percentile table under the distribution section still renders every figure BLS publishes, and the page carries an amber small-sample note, but with a reported count this small the text does not analyse the 10th, 25th, 75th or 90th percentiles or build any statement on them.
The median, not the tails, is the figure to carry away from this page.
