How can I become a licensed therapist if I have a PhD in general psychology?
In about a year, I will finish my PhD program in general psychology. I am interested in knowing how, and if, I can do 4000 hours of practicum with this degree--OR would I have to get PsyD or a PhD in counseling or clinical psychology before I can do a practicum. If it is relevant, I am from Florida.

Ask whatever school you are in if they offer a practicum in clinical psychology and see if your earned credits from general psychology count towards it.
This may have been a good thing to look into before you started the gen psych PhD program. You may have to pursue a whole different PhD in clinical psychology.
The state of Florida has many weird laws that I am unfamiliar with. Most states do not even require a PhD but have a certification process that must be passed.
