Thanks for your question. What made you think to pursue PhD in Psychology after doing MSc in Nursing?How can PhD in Psychology benefit you and help you grow your career?
If you want to pursue PhD in Psychology discipline, you can do. Not all colleges/University accept non-psychology students for PhD program but certainly you can pursue.
As Dr. Anand suggested, doing PhD in Nursing or public health field would be more rewarding. You may take up psychological variables for your PhD research and you can do psychological research being in the field of Nursing or Public Health. You may do certificate course in psychology or any relevant subject.
Wish you all the best with your career,Apurva Kumar Pandya, PhD
