Need a counselor?  (Probably.)  But not all counselors meet the ACC's high standards of ethics, education and experience.  Contact our office for the name and address of a qualified counselor in your area who has earned ACC certification.

Want to become a counselor?  For personal advice on graduate schools, contact our office.  We'd be glad to help.

Already a counselor?  If you have at least a master's degree and supervised clinical experience, ask for a copy of our Code of Ethics and Constitution, membership application, and sample Courier newsletter.  The journal Con-Text is $10 per issue (free to members).
