Of course, one can take up career in counseling psychology as their additional career.

1. Being good at listening

2. Skilled in problem solving 

3. Enough knowledge and experience

4. Commitment to help people

5. Investigative nature to find root cause

These are required to be in the field of counseling successfully.

Educational Qualification required: MSc psychology

Affiliation with a certified body is a great add on.

IGNOU is one of the best institute for distance learning.
