Just finishing my BSN and already possess an MA in Psych. I did pretty well in the BSN program. Live in San Diego area now. Is it difficult to get into a Psych PA program?
 
there are no pa programs specific to psych. you will get a psych rotation in pa school. there are post grad psych residencies. you would need to do a regular pa program then apply to a postgrad psych residency, although it is possible to practice psych without the residency if you can find someone willing to train you on the job.
see www.appap.org for links to all pa residencies.
also www.psychpa.org for the psych pa specialty society.
