NBCC, in partnership with the Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (ACES) and Chi Sigma Iota Counseling Academic & Professional Honor Society International (CSI), offers CM&F Liability Insurance, a top-of-the-line occurrence based professional liability insurance.

CM&F Liability Insurance is a trusted, affordable, and superior professional liability insurance, and through this incredible partnership, National Certified Counselors (NCCs), counselor supervisors, and counseling students have the opportunity to receive discounted rates.

CM&F’s specially tailored policies provide peace of mind and protection for even the most experienced counselors. For over 100 years, their exceptional 24/7 liability coverage has established excellent protection within all methods of client care.

There are numerous advantages to occurrence-based professional liability insurance. Mental health counselors will be protected from litigation expenses, as their personal assets, financial future, and professional credentials are a top priority. In addition, occurrence-based policies are permanent; losses that occur during the policy period are covered, even if it was not yet active, and the term a counselor is insured for is forever protected by that year’s policy.

NBCC, ACES, and CSI all share the same goal of continually striving to provide access to the highest quality and premiere professional resources for counselors and counselors-in-training. The aim is to ensure the professional reputation, assets, and interests of counselors, counselor supervisors, and counseling students are adequately protected as they serve the public and globally advance mental health efforts.

"NBCC, ACES, and CSI understand the complex situations that counseling students may face as they transition from classroom-based learning into counseling clients in their internships, and we support the professional community of counselors and supervisors who are doing impactful, meaningful work with clients and supervisees far and wide," says NBCC President and CEO Dr. Kylie Dotson-Blake. "We know how important it is that counselors and supervisors are able to make difficult decisions, rely on their expertise and ethical decision-making to engage with their clients, and practice with the assurance that they are covered when they encounter challenging professional times. To make sure that these early professionals and experienced counselors and supervisors have access to education, liability insurance, and strong systems of support, we have partnered together to offer CM&F’s top-notch, occurrence based professional liability insurance."
