Yes, Psychic Powers in 40K are different from Chaos Sorcery. Think of it like the Winds/Lore of Magic from Warhammer Fantasy, Chaos Sorcery are magical abilities gifted to a sorcerer from the Chaos Gods while the Winds of Magic/Psychic Powers are simply just was of using the energy of the Immaterium but via belief they're separated into various disciplines. You can't use Chaos Sorcery with learning from a Chaos Sorcerer or devoting yourself to Tzeench, Sleenesh or Nurgle (Khorne hates magic, so he has no wizards).

It's best to look at how the warp works from a Warhammer Fantasy perspective it makes it a lot less confusing and much more interesting (at least for me).
