“Dr. Shomron-Atar is an exceptional therapist. It has been my experience that he is deeply empathic, insightful, and a really experienced pro in a way that feels rare. He is always attentive, thoughtful, and remarkably creative in helping me see things from new angles. I consistently feel cared for, respected, and understood. If you are looking for someone who truly stands out — someone both compassionate and highly skilled — I strongly recommend contacting Eilon.”

I have gone through both struggles and wonderful periods of time while seeing Eilon for weekly sessions. He has been so helpful that even at times that I thought I had nothing to talk about, I left the session feeling so much more aware of myself and my experiences. I felt deeper and more and more and consequently more accepting of it all as things changed in my life. I am more open minded and more open hearted to the ebbs and flows of life.

Eilon is just the coolest! He’s a real deal Bodhisattva. He genuinely wants to help and doesn’t pretend to know more than I have shared and yet it’s like magic and something opens up and I feel like all my pieces are gelling together and I have energy and calm. I’ve really learned from Eilon to take the time to think about my feelings, my body, and my life and it’s like we’re both just amazed at how my life is growing and opening up and becoming fluid and amazing.

Eilon was deeply compassionate from the get go and that meant so much to me. I thought I was entering thereapy just to feel better, and I do feel so much better, but I also just feel so much more too. Eilon created such a pleasant space and I felt charged with potetnial every time we meet. Best decision of my life.

My weekly sessions feel like a retreat from the world. It's a place I really value for the introspection I get to share with someone who genuinely cares and helps me grow. Dr. Shomron-Atar’s skill is so clearly felt.

Eilon conveys a sense of authenticity and eagerness to listen and to help. He has this amazing ability to be both confident and a pillar in my life while always being compassionate, tentative, flexiblem and gentle in his approach and creating space for us to think together. He is brilliant in his responses but can always feel that he’s not just reacting, he is really thinking about me and it helps me really think about me.

I am grateful for Eilon’s presence in my life and his ability to always connect to my heart, even when I try to escape to my head, to meet me where I am, empower and encourage me to extend myself and make my life more meaningful, peaceful, and joyful. It’s not always easy :). Now in my sixties, I have had many therapists over the years, but hands down none so exceptionally skilled, genuine, bright, patient, and warm as Eilon, who is always inviting for me to see him as a whole person and to see myself as worthwhile.

Eilon can always find a way to reach me and help me feel strong at my weakest. He has given me a sense of safety and capacity through innumerous challenges through my early adulthood and as a consequence I have grown and find my inner life, my relationships, and my career far exceed what I thought was possible before meeting Eilon. I feel grateful and lucky that our paths crossed. I give him the highest recommendation.

As a mother, even to an adolescent entering young adulthood, trusting in a therapist to help my daughter with cognitive, emotional, and interpersonal challenges was not easy. We really lucked out!
Dr. Shomron-Atar and my daughter were able to create such a strong connection and the tailored parenting advice was so impactful for my daughter and for our relationship. Dr. Shomron-Atar helped us all understand what my daughter was experiencing and guided us all through expressing our needs from one another in a way that, years later, still echoes in our family and we often bring up Eilon would say this and Eilon would say that as a force of goodness and empathy that our family will forever be grateful for.

Dr. Shomron-Atar is such a generous and authentic person, giving from himself freely and guiding me on my journey, keeping my train from running off the tracks! He really knows how to hold the space for me when I am in pieces. His presence in my life has made me believe I’m valued and have worth, something I struggled with throughout my life. My life has been blessed by his presence. I have recommended and will continue to recommend Dr. Shomron-Atar to all who seek an amazing therapist :)!
