Credit counseling and debt management are words that can be used pretty much interchangably. In general credit counseling companies provide consumers with educational information and debt management services. For all intensive purposes as far as the solutions they can provide you, consider the terms to mean same thing since the basic service you get is the same whether you work with a company that calls itself a credit counselor or one that describes itself as a debt management company.
So what do they do?
They consolidate your debts into one payment and they are often able to lower the interest rates and fees you now pay. They can act as an intermediary between you and the credit card companies who, once they know you are in a debt management program, are more likely to work with you to help prevent further rapid debt accumulation.
Credit counselors are typically certified as non-profit corporations meaning their primary service is education and support for consumers with debt problems. Once they consult with you to determine your situation they will present solutions options to you.
