I have been a counselor for 20+ years. Counseling is a calling for me - a passion. I feel honored to come alongside those who are hurting, or who find themselves in a challenging place in their lives, and help them navigate through the difficulties that they face. I like to help my clients gain insight about themselves and others, assist them through the healing process, and then help them get back on track with their lives. I deal with the past issues as they affect the present, and I apply cognitive behavioral techniques to assist clients in facing and dealing with past hurts so they can heal and keep their past from hindering their progress in the present and future. As a therapist, I would describe myself as empathetic, non-judgmental, direct, honest, and practical. I offer my clients my genuine concern and empathy, combined with my direct thoughts, insights, and recommendations. I can offer you a safe place to sort through what is on your mind and heart. Many people carry a heavy load emotionally and fear letting their guard down with others. One of the benefits of therapy is that I am not in your every day life. I am not your friend or family member...I am your counselor. I am not here to judge you. I can help you cut through the noise and get to the root of what is truly troubling you and I can walk you through the steps necessary to bring about the change you desire to see in your life.

5 years of experience

Hello! My name is Melissa Childers-White. I am very excited about the opportunity to collaborate with you on BetterHelp as you seek life changes. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. Regarding my educational background, I was a Philosophy major at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, with minors in Psychology and Spanish. I also studied abroad for a semester each in Spain and in Denmark, and traveled in over 30 countries around the world - which has really helped me connect with other cultures, peoples and ways of life. My Masters in Counseling Psychology is from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas, and included a counseling internship in medical, sex and cancer counseling. My goal in counseling will be to support you with empathy and without judgment to help you get to a place where you feel better, and to assist you in the solving of your challenges. We will focus on your inherent capacity to create your own growth and thrive and will develop a plan of action to meet your goals. My therapeutic approach is a holistic one where I blend elements from different approaches and tailor counseling according to each client’s unique needs. Tools like Socratic questioning, focusing on one's self talk Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can help you clarify your thinking, its origins, assumptions and then develop possible alternative viewpoints to provide forward movement. I feel that live sessions are a much better tool than text or chat for moving forward on issues. Together we will keep taking one step at a time, at a pace that you choose. I generally check messages on BetterHelp a few times a day between 10 am and 6 pm each day, Monday through Friday, (not on weekends). 10 -6 (CT) is also the time I have available for sessions. My toolbox for helping people has also benefited from a career path that has expanded outside of the traditional mental health pathway - helping me build problem-solving and communication skills and an out-of-the-box approach to thinking across a variety of fields. After a number of recent years spent pursuing a dream of mine to design and create art and run my own art studio - a very creative and intriguing endeavor that I will continue doing after hours - I felt strongly called to make more of a contribution to others again through counseling. I looked forward to returning to providing a compassionate ear, thoughtful feedback, and skills for patients to move forward in their lives. I’m fascinated to find that working with my local city government collaborating with others to tackle community issues, other volunteering in my community and children’s schools, my previous pursuit of art, my philosophy studies, my experience in travel/study abroad and my beginning to meditate as a college student all contribute to the thought processes I derive from my counseling foundation. I thoroughly enjoy the online platform for counseling and have found it to work well for my patients. My strengths are in the areas of Mindfulness, meditation, stress, anxiety, emotions, asserting healthy boundaries, self-talk and CBT, medical illness issues, sex and intimacy, cancer counseling, coping strategies, relationship/ divorce issues, motivation, self-confidence, depression, grief/loss, finding deeper issues at play, healthy lifestyle creation, life changes, positive psychology, communication skills, and coping strategies. My invitation to each patient to engage their brain to work with mine offers a synergy that patients appreciate and find helpful in their efforts to take responsibility for and improve their own mental health. I applaud your courage in reaching out for help with your current struggle and would love to be that counselor with whom you find a connection to help you create a more fulfilling and happier life. It would be an honor and a pleasure to work with you. Melissa Childers-White, M.A., L.P.C.

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Iowa Park area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Iowa Park therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Iowa Park due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for.

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a psychologist: $100

While many psychologists in Iowa Park may not take health insurance, some in the state of Texas may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Texas you can expect significantly more affordable options, with therapists sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Iowa Park?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Iowa Park therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors and therapists are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Iowa Park therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A Iowa Park therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in TX, therapists may be booked out with clients. Through the list of profiles or therapists above and others within BetterHelp's team, you may be able to find a psychologist within 24 to 48 hours. If you're searching to find a a nearby psychotherapist close to 76367 or the surrounding zip codes, consider others available through the BetterHelp site where you can schedule a session based on your and the therapist's schedule.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Iowa Park counselor?

Before seeing your Iowa Park therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns or feel unsure about what to talk about. Iowa Park therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Iowa Park licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Iowa Park counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Iowa Park, Texas can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Iowa Park has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
