     I touched on Credit Counseling already but thought I would add the following.
Credit counseling is a term that is usually followed up by terms such as debt consolidation, though the two do not always have to go hand in hand.  There are many ways in which credit counseling can improve your financial standing, but if you are not careful it can actually negatively impact your credit and your financial future.  This is why you need to do your homework and only get involved in the programs that are right for you.

     Debt consolidation is often a part of credit counseling.  This is where you get some credit counseling professionals to help you get all of your debts together and then consolidate them into one debt.  This will allow you to have just one payment to worry about each month and will also allow you to pay more toward your actual debt instead of continuing to pay high interest rates.







     Credit counseling can also refer to the actual financial counseling and planning for individuals.  There are many different credit reduction companies as well as private institutions that will get with people and help them plan for their future.  The company will help the individual look at all of their debt and figure out how they can most effectively get it paid off, this is often a part of the overall debt consolidation plan.

     You have to be very careful when you start looking into credit counseling.  The reason for this is that there are many scammers out there that promise you many great things in terms of your credit while collecting a monthly fee from you.  Unfortunately, a lot of these companies keep the money for themselves while you still have more credit than ever before, and perhaps now you have late fees.  Most people who have been involved in debt consolidation or credit counseling services would not advise their friends to take part in such a program.  You should consider this fact when you are shopping for the right credit counseling service for you and your specific needs.

      You will also educate yourself on how to avoid future debt problems in the future. Once you have restructured what you owe, you inevitably start to see money differently, it can change the way you see finances. You will start to learn trick and tips on how not to end up in this situation again and how to better manage your financial situation. You will also be treated with respect and not made to feel bad about how your finances have gotten to this position. They will help guide you through your financial situation and give you hope for the future.
