canuck Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hi everyoneJust wondering if there are any psychologists out there from SA who have made the trek to Australia. Did you find it easy to register in Aus and how do you find the career opportunities? Thanks,Canuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllisonW Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I am a social worker not a psychologist and we have not left there but just to say that there seems to be a huge demand for mental health positions, linked to the excellent provision of welfare services. There are a number of recruitment agencies that specialise in mental health care so perhaps do a search. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks,Canuck.Hi I spoke to the head psychologist that I work with (at a private hosp South East Melbourne) She comes from an Asian country and went through all the registration procedure. She said the A.P.S assesses the qualification and then you apply for registration with the relevant state board - state registration board of Victoria. She is happy to give you further details re job opps and registration. if you wish to e-mail her direct. Just pm me and I will supply her work e-mail address. regards K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzbee Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Hi thereI am a psychologist and have recently moved to Sydney. I am happy for you to PM me and I can give you the info about my experience - it does pertain to NSW, but the states psychology bodies are about to merge so it may be relevant to Victoria as well.BuzzbeeHi I spoke to the head psychologist that I work with (at a private hosp South East Melbourne) She comes from an Asian country and went through all the registration procedure.
