The only difference is that we get to help people solve their debt problems, provide debt relief, and find solutions to their financial problems. Because this is a normal part of our everyday, we sometimes forget how big a difference the help we give makes in the lives of our clients.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"291\" height=\"159\" title=\"Helping People\" align=\"right\" class=\"fright\" alt=\"Credit counseling helps people eliminate their financial stress, sleep better at night, find debt options that work and avoid bankruptcy.\" src=\"https:\/\/nomoredebts.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/helping-handing_feature_blog.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Our clients&#8217; experiences<\/h2>\n<p>Today, as comments from our client survey came back to us, we were reminded by so many of our clients what a difference we\u2019ve been able to make in their lives. As staff read the comments, it was suggested that we share some of them with you. Here\u2019s a small sample of what we received; people who could be your friend or colleague, commenting about their experience with the Credit Counselling Society and how their Counsellor helped them to stop worrying about their financial problems:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201cFeeling understood and un-judged made it easier to cope with having to talk about such a difficult topic. It was hard enough to make the call and wait for the appointment. My counsellor made it very easy to talk and understood my tears.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of times I thought of ending my life over this situation. I am ever so thankful I came in and seen you. You pointed me in the right direction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe staff are very friendly and are able to put people at ease, even when the problems seem insurmountable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou provide a good service. Thank you for your assistance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thanks to the Credit Counselling Society for their help!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThanks &#8212; I didn&#8217;t feel judged, I felt human\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou offer a fantastic service. I am sincerely thankful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had originally spoken with a company who was a &#8220;profit&#8221; company&#8230;not like your a non-profit agency. I feel extremely pressured and felt like a failure. Your company treated me with respect, reassured me, helped develop a plan and for the first time in my life&#8230;feel like I am holding myself accountable for my spending. I make a very good salary and wish I had developed the skills&#8230; you are teaching me&#8230;much earlier in my life. Thank you! :-)\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Counsellor who helped me had great communication skills, was professional, positive and non-judgmental. I felt I could cut through the drama of my situation and get right to the facts. I am glad that she did not exhibit &#8220;pity&#8221; for my circumstances. She actually helped me to see that I had more to gain by fighting for my right to receive support from my ex-husband than I did by simply capitulating to his unreasonable offers. She empowered me and I left with a sense of direction and control. I may visit your service again once my money picture is more stable for insight on how to move forward with my finances. Thank you very much for this service.\u201d [sic]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Quality credit counselling and non profit debt relief makes a massive difference in people&#8217;s lives<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While <a href=\"https:\/\/creditcounsellingcanada.ca\/debt-relief-options-research-study\/\">the benefits of providing non profit debt relief<\/a> and help may seem obvious, when you do it everyday, sometimes you forget what a massive impact it has in the lives of those you help.
