Are you ready to find a counselor?

Search for a National Certified Counselor in your area using Counselor Find or verify certification using Counselor Verify.


National Certified Counselors (NCCs) must meet professionally defined standards in education and experience in order to become certified. By choosing an NCC, you can be confident that your counselor continues to meet the criteria for continuing education and conduct standards, important components to the provision of mental health care. Look for the NCC or National Certified Counselor certification mark, an indicator of qualification and commitment in a professional counselor.
