Hello @funnyAvocado8102,

I can only share general info with you since
not knowing what is the current level of your Psychology studies.

I believe in most countries at least some will require the candidate
to have at least a Master's degree, to begin with,
need to clock sufficient hours under supervision,
in order to be certified by a respective authority
to practise in the profession.
E.g. Clinical or Counselling Psychologist.

If your interest is in research on certain areas of Psychology,
you may need to consider pursuing a Ph.D.
You certainly need a mentor.

You may like to consider speaking to your
lecturer, tutor, and/or career consultant in your school
for more detailed advice and options available before graduation.

For your reference.
