Is it worth becoming a psychologist/psychotherapist in London, ENGLAND ?
I’m in grade 10 and want to become either a clinical psychologist or psychotherapist.
I wish to live and study in England, but am debating if its worth it and if i should just stay inthe Toronto region.
If you have any information on relevant current career trends , or websites linking me to a government site, that would be greatly appreciated. Any feedback is welcomed.

To be either in England or Canada you will need a masters or even doctorate. You can qualify in either country and then register with the psychological society for either. Once you are qualified there will be links to jobs and careers through the society/association.
Here are the links

they will give you the best advice. Canadians with masters/doctorates or those wishing to take them in the UK rarely seem to find it too difficult to do so.
A lot of British Universities do exchange programs with Canadian Colleges, I know for example that Edinburgh and Queens have a long standing relationship. While at college you might want to look into getting onto an exchange program, to see if you like the lifestyle here first.
