careers for alevel socio, geog and politics

for my alevels i chose to do sociology, geography and politics. but i was made to change biology to politics so it made me mess up my career path. my future career was supposed to be something in therapy, but obviously i most likely would need a science for it. would i need to change my career paths or would supposedly in the future, universities would allow me to do a psychology course without a science. i'm not set on any universities, so if there are any that accept a psychology course without a science, let me know. if i'm unable to pursue a job in therapy then let me know what other jobs i could do with alevel sociology, geography and politics.

I know that Plymouth uni asks for 3 alevels from any subjects for their psychology degree. There might also be a few others with no specific entry requirements. Some that require a science subject might also consider geography as a science subject, so I recommend taking a look at the entry requirements for some psych courses at different unis.

Geography is seen as a 'science related' subject by many Unis - check the entry requirements on each Psych course page. Bristol as one example - "including A in a science-related subject. Science-related subjects include: Biology; Chemistry; Computer Science; Further Mathematics; Geography; Mathematics; Physics; Psychology; and Statistics."
