About me

My name is Christie Wilhite-Chu, and I have been licensed for 14 years in Texas as a professional counselor. I have worked with families and children for 15 years in a variety of settings. I have a experience in many areas, and am most proficient in issues involving child abuse, domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, infertility/adoption/egg donation, school and academic difficulties (including students with individual education plans), eating disorders, , parenting multiples, and issues facing those with HIV. I want each client I work with to know that it is normal to have problems along the path of life. Most people struggle at some point in time, and it is a positive step to seek help.

My clinical approach is compassionate and person centered. Once I have a clear understanding of the individual client and the problem, I move the client into identifying goals. I use cognitive behavioral strategies where work is focused on changing thinking patterns and feelings. I also utilize relaxation techniques and imagery.

Please contact me if you are struggling with life issues. Everyone needs a little help sometimes!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Christie Wilhite-Chu. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Christie really helped me get through a period where I needed it. I live in a fairly isolated part of the world and she understood straight away the challenges I was dealing with. She provided that un-biased, outside view that is easy to lose when you don't have anyone to turn to. I highly recommend her, and will be returning to her again.

Christie is an amazing counselor. This was my first time in therapy and from the very first session, Christie has been so warm, patient and nurturing. She understood my issues and helped me understand them as well. She knew right where I was coming from and gave me solutions to work my issues out. More than anything, Christie valued me, which made me feel an instant connection with her as though I had finally found someone who could understand me and see me for being me. You are awesome, Christie. I wish you all the happiness in the world.

Since day one, Christie has continued to be so helpful and understanding. She really takes the time to listen to every word. She has managed to help me see things that I couldn't before. I don't know where I would be without her. Christie, thank you for everything you have done for me. You truly are God-send.
