I am a doctoral student at an APA-accredited clinical psychology PsyD program. My partner has dual US/CAN citizenship and we are considering settling down in CAN after I complete my program, internship, and post-doc, in order to be closer to their family. In my brief search so far, I looked at ASBPP for the licensing requirements for jurisdiction British Columbia. I am wondering what the pro's and con's are and any other considerations that should be taken into account to make an informed decision. Specifically, I am wondering about the necessary steps to apply for licensure (is it different/more difficult to do so in CAN or B.C.?), when in my training might be appropriate to say search for a internship, post-doc, or first job in CAN, and to what extent may a move such as this affect my professional networking or vice a versa. I welcome any suggestions/recommendations for resources and information.
My partner and I are somewhat flexible on where we may settle down that is best for us personally and professionally. They are strongly pushing for CAN, which I am open to. However, we want to make an informed decision that will be best for my future career as a clinical psychologist. We had not considered the possibility of settling in CAN prior to my grad school application process, so here we are. Wondering if/where we can go from here.
Thanks
