It depends on how much education you have. Most states require you to have a master's degree (social work, psychology, counseling) to work as a counselor. So you would have to get a bachelor's degree and a master's degree. Then you have to do an internship. How long depends on the state. (These degrees also make it easier to get insurance payments to cover the patient's costs.)



You can get a bachelor's degree at an online college, make sure it's accredited, and keep working. You might also be able to find a online master's program. The internship, obviously, has to be done live.



I got my second graduate degree at 50, so life is hardly passing you by.



As for how to go about it, figure out what state you want to practice in. Then check the requirements to be a counselor there. Then figure out what colleges in your state have MSW, MC, or similar programs. Find a program that you like and apply for it, once you have the bachelor's degree.



Financial aid is a consideration. There are scholarships and loans, but it helps to work while attending, if you can.I want to change career from cabin crew to counselling?

Night college?

You could also do some volunteer work which would work in your favour and would give you a taster of the world of being a counsellor. The Samaritans are always looking for volunteers to go on the phones to help people.
