" If you prefer someone who is attentive, compassionate and direct, you will like this psychologist, Dr. Gilbert Chalepas. I’m always suspicious of therapists who have little to say… I’m not sure if they’re prolonging therapy to keep the money coming in, or if they are thinking about what they’re going to have for dinner or maybe the laundry that needs to be washed. In my experience there are too many of those kinds of therapists out there and that doesn’t work for me.
Beverly Hills therapist Dr Gilbert Chalepas is definitely not like that, he’s tell you straight what you need to hear in a kind and supportive way. I have come to know that he truly loves helping his clients; he’s very professional, and he remembers you. A real treat."

If you’re hesitating, don’t wait…do yourself a favor and call his office. Life sucks when your self-esteem sucks. If you don’t feel good about yourself and what is or going on in your life, then it’s time to get the professional help of Dr. Chalepas. Thank God, I did."
"I had considered going to a cognitive-behavioral therapist due to my frequent anxiety and negative thinking patterns for some time because I had read that it helped. When I finally couldn’t stand it anymore, I chose CBT psychologist Dr. Gilbert Chalepas in Beverly Hills. My only regret is that I should have gone to him sooner and saved myself, my self-esteem, improved myself-confidence and a great deal of grief and aggravation. I stayed with Dr. Gilbert Chalepas because he’s compassionate, understanding, easy to talk to and gave me great advice. Most important to me, I got results. Highly recommended."
"Dr. Chalepas, he really created a safe space for me. From our very first meeting, I felt I could open up about my worries without any fear of judgment, he was caring yet direct. His understanding nature has helped me explore my feelings and express things I kept bottled up for so long, it felt good to finally release them. Knowing that my experiences matter has truly made a difference."
