ADVOCACY-COUNSELING ENROLLMENT

The National Center For Men provides telephone consultations by advocate-counselors experienced in a variety of issues of concern to men.

Counseling is confidential.

Our approach is to help you in a way that is both practical and supportive.

The fee for counseling is not tax-deductible because it is a fee for services rendered, not a charitable contribution. We charge for our services so that we will survive to counsel people who will need our help next year and the year after that. When you retain us to help you, you are also helping others because you are making it possible for NCM to be a more effective organization.

Fee Schedule

The fee for your initial consultation is $165. This includes the time we spend reviewing documents, case histories and summaries you send to us, a two hour telephone conference for you with an experienced NCM advocate-counselor, and one follow-up conference. We request a small donation of $15, in addition to your counseling fee, when you first retain us but you do not have to make a donation to receive NCM counseling. You may omit the donation, if you wish. There is never an additional charge for document review or a follow-up consultation.

Additional consultations beyond the follow-up, if you require them, will be billed at $80 per one-hour session.

We also offer our clients an initial consultation of one-hour. You may pay a fee of $85 for one sixty minute session, provided you do not want us to review a case file and do not anticipate needing a follow-up.
