One thing I learned shortly after getting my psych degree was that I needed at least a masters for any decent paying job. A bachelors is worthless in the psych game. My only option was a psych tech at a nursing home ro at the local mental hospital. Psych tech is fancy talk for "bottom of the barrel".
When you do get your masters, there are more options. School psychologists, I/O psych, etc.
Talk to your department head to find out your options and what level of schooling is needed for options that interest you.
