What sort of career? Are you planning on working with clients, or doing research?

If you were going for an MA/MS....you probably could get by without too many psych classes (if any) at the undergrad level. If you want to go the doctoral route, it would be very difficult without a background in it, research, etc.

If you primary want to do therapy...get an MS in Social Work, Counseling, Family Therapy, etc.
