Getting to know Dr. Maytal Shalev-Eylath
I came to therapy first as a client, hoping to escape my feelings-only to discover the power of honoring them. If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or sadness, stuck in painful thought patterns, or struggling with emotions that feel too heavy to carry alone, I'm here to help. Life can be challenging, but together, we can create a space where healing and change are possible.
I primarily use somatic, mindfulness, and compassion-based approaches. In our work together, you will learn research-backed skills to deepen self-awareness, gain insight, and build emotional resilience. My goal is to empower you to navigate life's challenges with presence and compassion, overcoming them with greater ease and grace.
I am a compassionate, honest, and engaged therapist. I will work with you to make sure you are seeing personal change and growth. At times I may challenge you, but always within a safe space where you feel seen, validated, and cared for.
I hold a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Sofia University, which informs my approach and commitment to evidence-based, client-centered care.
What should a new client know about working with you?
With over 15 years of experience working with adults, I specialize in supporting individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and other emotional challenges. I am trained in somatic and mindfulness-based therapies and am certified in trauma-informed care. I have a passion for neuroscience and believe the understanding the brain is crucial to create change.
In our work together, we will use neuroscience-based mindfulness and self-compassion techniques to help you develop a deeper awareness of your thoughts and emotions, build resilience, and create meaningful change in your life. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs, ensuring that you feel supported while also making real progress.
I have extensive experience working with individuals facing a range of challenges, including:
Anxiety and chronic worry
Depression
Eating disorders and body image issues
OCD and Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)
Work-related stress and burnout
Relational issues
Self-worth
Perfectionism
Life transitions
Complex trauma
PTSD
Childhood trauma
Self-harm and suicidality
If you're considering starting therapy, I invite you to reach out. Once I receive your appointment request, I will contact you within 24 hours to confirm and discuss the next steps. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and growth.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I believe that therapy should be a collaborative and personalized experience. My approach is tailored to each client’s unique needs, but generally follows these steps:
Initial Consultation – Our first session will focus on understanding your concerns, history, and goals for therapy. We will discuss what brings you to therapy and begin developing a plan that aligns with your needs.
Building Awareness and Insight – We will work together to explore patterns in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Through mindfulness-based techniques, you will learn to cultivate greater self-awareness and develop tools for managing challenges.
Skill Development and Healing – As we progress, I will introduce evidence-based strategies to help you navigate difficult emotions, build resilience, and foster self-compassion. If relevant, we may integrate somatic (body-based) practices to support emotional regulation and trauma healing.
Integration and Growth – Over time, we will focus on strengthening the skills you’ve developed, reinforcing positive changes, and ensuring you feel empowered to apply what you’ve learned in your daily life.
Ongoing Support or Transition – Therapy can be short-term or long-term, depending on your needs. When you feel ready, we will discuss how to maintain progress independently or transition out of therapy in a way that feels right for you.
