Is it too late to start college again at 26 years old?

Two semesters ago, I graduated from college in New York with a Bachelors degree in Psychology. I had a 2.45 cumulative GPA. I messed up during my freshman and sophomore years because I was immature. I watched movies and listened to music instead of studying. Now, I'm working as a lab technician. I would like to become a social worker, mental health counsellor, or something having to do with animals. I am 26. I want to continue my education and earn better grades. Now, I am older and more interested in studying. Do I have a chance of getting into any Masters program with a 2.4 undergrad GPA? Or would I need to start college from scratch?
