Can i get some advice on my future plans?

Hi. My name is Ross and i just finished my CSEC/GCSE exams and ive been thinking about the future....my career to be exact. First of all im trying to pin down exactly what i want to be. This might be a bit confusing but please bear with me. Ok ive based my career upon psychology, mainly child/adolescents so a child psycholgists? I dont know if thats a job on its own but ill go into more detail. So growing up and learning abot myself and figuring myself out i have realised that i do have alot of problems and as a teen i have learnt how terrible life can be. But something occured to me and then i decided that i want to help people who are as troubled as i am and have no one to talk to about it or vent. All i see on the news are teens commiting suicide whether its because of bullying or death in the family and being depressed and introverted or have bad anxiety and some are just basically afraid of life. Getting back on track i decided for myself that i wanted to be there for these guys whether they be autistic, suicidal, foster kids, traumatized kids (abuse etc). I want to be able to help anyone with any social,mental or emotional problem cope and be able to live their lives without all these weights on their shoulders because boy do i know what that feels like. I'll be so happy if i can be able to comfort people in their darkest hour by giving a proper diagnosis and great advice and making sure they know how to go about their path to recovery. Now in reading all of that what do you think im going for....? A therapist? social worker? If a child/adelescent psychology a job on its own am i leaning towards that? Does anyone know any specific job area i seem to be talking about? Ive been thinking but i cant seem to figure it out. Anyways back to the future talk, i have set my mind on studying in Canada and im sure my career path has to do with psychology so my second question is what are some good colleges/universities for psychology in Canada that i can check out on the internet because i feel its about time i look for a university to set my eyes on. The reason is...for me to function properly i need to have goal set of that makes sense once i have my eyes set on something my mind just clicks and i work tirelessly to achieve what i set out for. That mentality has gotten me far as ive have excelled in my examinations. Also for anyone who has experience how would i go about migrating to Canada to study? I do know i need a study permit but the whole idea is too vague for me. Lastly, how long would my career in child psychology? (dont know what to call it yet) take and what degrees/training would i need to obtain? To anyone who answers this mess, thank you so much from the bottom of my heart its just that i confused myself and have no clue where i should head of to when i get to this point in my life. #psychology #child-psychology #counseling-psychology
