    Hi,Of course yes. Especially, because you are already into teaching and have human resource management knowledge. Counseling and psychology does seem like a good option to enhance skill sets. You may want to do a proper certification in psychology for a particular discipline such as children, career, emotional wellness, depression etc. Obtain a license. You can then practice as a counselor at institutions and also do it as a freelancer.

No, their eligibility criteria are different. Though the subject is the same, the course streams are different. For the BA Psychology admission, you'll need to pass Class 12 from any stream, but for the BSc in Psychology, you'll need to pass Class 12 with the Science stream only. Their minimum eligible marks can also differ.
