Im looking for some advice and I hope someone here can help me.
Here is a little background info:
I have BA in Economics and Psychology. I graduated from UC Santa Cruz almost 2 years ago. I have always seen myself working as a therapist. But I also have an urge to move out of the country and study in an international university.
I want to earn a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology. My fear is the degree I will earn abroad will not be accepted here, in CA, at all and I will have to start the whole process over again. I still have not decided what country I want to study in but I am looking into Australia, Austria, even maybe South Africa.
So my question is this:
If I move back to CA, will it accept my Master's degree? I know I will have to take the state license exam to practice, but will the degree be equivalent to a Master's degree obtained in the US, esp. CA?
I will appreciate any advice that I can get. Thank you!
