To become a Forensic Psychologist: Do I NEED to major in psychology?

My plan is to major in Criminal Justice, and get my masters in Forensic Psychology. Does that work? Will I still be able to succeed in this field without getting my PHD? I dont know what I would want to do with it yet, I would love to assist law enforcement with judging mental stability of criminals being put on trial, but I also really like the idea of working in a correctional facility or a mental hospital for the criminally insane type of thing. I'm not sure! But thank you for trying to help. I am still in high school, so I dont need to make any decisions right now.
