Client Reviews

"I highly recommend Sylvia Chelf.  She has been my counselor for a little over 2 years now and I’m so grateful for her.  She is an excellent listener and provides great strategies to improve your overall wellbeing.  She relates to you on a personal level, just enough to allow you to understand that you are not alone in this process.  Her suggestions for readings, visuals, video clips, as well as her verbal explanations really help for clarification.  I especially enjoy her flexibility.  Her extended available times throughout the week to include late hours and even weekends.  I can tell she shares her passion with her clients and remains committed to them even on days out by assigning a little homework assignment.  She is very understanding when it has come to my work schedule and even provides a sliding scale for therapy.  I am so glad I found her! Thank you for everything!!"

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Sylvia Chelf. As a transgender woman, I’ve faced so many challenges finding a psychiatrist who truly listens, understands, and supports me. Dr. Chelf is the first one who made me feel completely seen and heard. She helped me with a letter for my top surgery, and without her support, I don’t know where I would be today.
She is one of the most sincere, kind-hearted, and genuine people I’ve ever met. With past psychiatrists, I often felt dismissed or overlooked, but with Dr. Chelf, it’s the exact opposite, she makes you feel valued, respected, and cared for like family. Her compassion and dedication go far beyond what you’d ever expect, and it has made such a life-changing difference in my journey.
If you’re looking for a psychiatrist who will not only listen but also walk beside you with empathy and sincerity, Dr. Chelf is truly the best. I’m endlessly grateful for her support, and I cannot recommend her enough."

-H3RO GAMES

"I’ve been seeing my counselor through remote sessions for over a year now, and I’ve had a very positive experience. From the beginning, she has created a comfortable and judgment-free environment where I feel like I can speak openly and honestly. She is compassionate, attentive, and genuinely listens rather than making sessions feel rushed or routine. I especially appreciate that she takes the time to understand what I’m going through and offers thoughtful feedback and practical guidance that I can actually apply outside of our sessions. Over the time I’ve worked with her, I feel that our sessions have helped me better understand myself, work through difficult situations, and approach things with a healthier perspective. Even through remote sessions, she has been able to build a strong therapeutic relationship and make our conversations feel personal and meaningful.
I’m very grateful for the support she has provided me and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a counselor who is caring, professional, and genuinely invested in helping their clients."
