Does anyone know if Lembaga Kaunselor Malaysia (LKM) accepts counseling degree from overseas? Such as a Ph.D. in counseling psychology from the USA, with at least 500 practicum hours and 500 internship hours. I have read news about LKM denying licensing for a Malaysian with such degree, yet I am not sure how true is that.

To Psychology from Accounting

I was an accounting graduate and am now working in banking industry.

Throughout the self-discovery journey, I realize that I have great interest in psychology with the urge to read books and do free online courses on this topic. Hence I am considering to further my studies in this field. However I do know that accounting is not a very relevant course for me to start a postgrad degree in psychology and financial constrain is definitely another major setback for me. Hence my questions are:

1. Is there still possibility for me to do a master course in psychology straight away or do I need to start all over again with bachelor degree in psychology?
2. Any other ways to testify if I am suitable to be in this field (my direction would be more on the research part instead of clinical psychologist)
3. How tough to obtain a scholarship to do a psychology course (both bachelor and master degree) in the USA?
