I need a graduate Psychology degree for licensure

Hi,
I am currently considering getting a graduate psychology degree (e.g. M.A. or M.S. in Psychology) to practice counseling (legally, with a license). However, I feel that I have a special case, and would like some feedback on this.

Please consider the following facts:

1. I already have a masters degree (MBA);
2. I am currently enrolled at NCU in a PhD program in Business Administration;
3. I am currently working in Psychiatry as an RN (and therefore have lots of experience in the field);
4. I have been an "unlicensed" therapist (under the guise of hypnotherapist and minister) and have lots of experience in counceling / therapy;
5. I would like to avoid endless hours of internship (I believe it is 2,000 hours or more here in California) unless I could use my work hours in inpatient psychiatry as such;
6. I would be willing to (temporarily) move to another state that has easier licensure requirements and has a reciprocal agreement with California;
7. I would like a degree / license with the least amount of hassle / academic work / practicum hours / expenses possible.

Thanks in advance for your help, feedback and support.

 

Masters degree

Check out Liberty U. I think they have a short Masters besides one for licensure.

Also, many of the other DL schools have some form of Masters degree in counseling. Saybrook Institute might accomodate you.

I believe also Antioch U.

HOpe this helps a little.
