What work can I do in BC with a Master's Degree in Forensic Psychology? I understand that to practice as a Psychologist in BC it is essential to have a Doctorate level degree (understandable for clinical psychology, but a bit odd for forensic psychology). Anyway, I have 3 years experience working as a support worker/healthcare assistant in low secure mental health facilities, and have 6 months experience as an Assistant Psychologist (Also in low secure). Is their a need for Mental health workers in BC? and what are the salaries like?

Hi Paul,

Thank you Mandie,

I am in the UK at the moment and will be looking into various visa's for the quickest possible route into Canada. We are hoping for a permanent move as soon as possible.
