A magical community

Camp Augusta is one of the best places on planet earth. Through camp, I’ve made lifelong friends around the world and learned skills that I carry with me every day. It’s hard work but the most fulfilling. They support every individual and foster a safe community with a growth mindset. Small cabin sizes allow for you to connect on a deeper level with campers. Yummy, nourishing food. A beautiful setting with waterfalls and forest in the mountains. An abundance of play and fun. You’ll never be bored here and happen upon some true magic.

A Guide to Psychology Jobs Abroad

Why Work Abroad in Psychology

Working abroad in psychology can be an advantage for professionals trained in the U.S., because many countries lack the mental health professionals required to meet local needs and therefore actively recruit mental health workers.

Jobs abroad in psychology can also be a great opportunity for those with minimal experience or those who are a few steps away from full licensure. Standard licensed psychologists in the U.S. and Canada must have their doctorate degree before practicing, but that isn’t the case around the world. In many countries, a bachelor’s degree in psychology is sufficient enough to work in psychology.

Training and licensing requirements differ from country to country, and so do cultural standards and language challenges. Working in psychology abroad will expose psychologists to new cultural practices, expand their cross-cultural communication abilities, and may even teach them brand new language skills altogether.
