      1.  Pending disciplinary proceedings before the Board, a panel of its members or a hearing officer, the court may, upon application by the Board or the Attorney General, issue a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction to enjoin any unprofessional conduct of a psychologist which is harmful to the public, to limit the psychologist’s practice or to suspend the license to practice psychology, without proof of actual damage sustained by any person, this provision being a preventive as well as a punitive measure.
