Written on Jul 07, 2026 after therapy with Kuan Hiong Sylvia for 3 years and 5 months on issues concerning relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, and self esteem
I've had 2 sessions but it has been amazing. It's also very healing that I feel like I'm making a progress and untangling my tangled emotions. She listens and she understands. Thank you so much

Dr Chiang listens and provides constructive achievable goals. She provides a fresh new perspective to my anxieties and stressors. These have helped me cope better.

Simply amazing. I’ve grown so much since I started working with Dr Chiang. She listens to me and helps me by providing tools I need to grow.

Dr. Sylvia helped me understand some thoughts I had were not healthy in the long run. I'm less anxious and am able to identify when I'm about to slip into that vicious cycle i often can't get out of. She's methodical, kind, and actively listens. She surprised me a few times when she asked to revisit something I said prior, or after I spoke at great length about certain things. While my previous therapist on betterhelp was helpful, she didn't help me understand how to recognize certain patterns or tendencies, and further my understanding of self. Any concerns I had before our first session were quickly washed away after said session. Thanks again Dr. Sylvia.
