I have been enjoying counseling for the past 6 years because it gives me the opportunity to help others get past problems, gain more confidence, and enjoy enriching relationships! I enjoy working with clients with all mental health difficulties including depression, anxiety, personal insecurities, self-esteem issues, relationship problems, trauma, overcoming ineffectiveness, and stress management. However, I am quite skilled in many other personal mental performance areas, due to my experiences. I use person centered and cognitive behavioral therapy to build a trusting and supportive relationship with my clients. I live a vastly fulfilling life myself and believe healing comes through the connection I have with my clients. I have had great success in moving others past their difficulties so they can live a healthy, enriching life. I am prepared to bridge the chasm between where you are now and the life you feel you could be living. I believe the riches of the world are the people in it. Let me help you overcome problems and become the person you want.

David has been both responsive and thoughtful in his counseling approach. I am very pleased that BetterHelp paired me with David. While I do not expect to require counseling for a long period of time, I certainly expect to keep David’s information ready for when life gets tough and I need an objective sounding board. David Chiddix is 10/10 therapist!

David is very positive in his approach to life's challenges. He sends out a message at the beginning of the week offering encouragement and practical suggestions. He is a thoughtful listener and is supportive of clients who are trying to make the best of their family life. He has a kind, low-key style of communication, and never takes a heavy-handed approach to solving a client's problems.

David has been a literal life saver. I was in a relationship with someone truly toxic and he was supportive in my efforts to save my relationship but was also real with me about the obvious abuse going on. Without him I dont know what I would have done. He is kind and supportive and intuitive and I am so grateful that I was able to connect with him.

David has been fantastic for me and he has helped me through a very tough time. Unfortunately the app/website has let me down payment wise and skimmed days off when I started so I was unable to say thank you to David before my ‘month’ was up. I am doing well now and things are on the up. David has had a massive impact on my progress and if I feel I need to return to therapy, I will seek David out. I’m sorry I didn’t get chance to say thank you properly and I, and my family, will be forever grateful for the help you have given. All the best David.
