Is it true that one could potentially practice law by studying for, and passing , the bar exam?
Along those lines, can one potentially take the equivalent of the bar exam in the field of psychotherapy (Paid listener) ?

It's only true of law in a few states. I highly doubt it would be true of psychotherapy (that would be crazy) but I'm sure google can help you figure that out.

Your question is confusing and also, ill informed
First, why are you referring to psychotherapy as 'paid listening' ? Is that what you think therapists do: nothing but listen? You are sorely mistaken
But to answer your question, psychotherapists have (at minimum) a masters degree in social work. Likely they took an exam to become an LMSW and then after several years of clinical experience and supervision, they sit for another exam and if they pass, they're an LCSW

In 5 states, California, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, and Wyoming an applicant who has not attended law school may take the bar exam after study under a judge or practicing attorney for an extended period of time. This method is known as "reading law" or "reading the law".
As for psychotherapists, degrees are a requirement that can only be acquired through full college. And they are not paid listeners.
