We Hear You

Living here is incredible. It's also a lot.

Whether you're a Lone Soldier, building your life as an Olim, or navigating student life in Israel…the pressure is real. And getting support in English, from someone who actually gets it, has been nearly impossible. Until now.

Challenges you may have encountered:

Hebrew system background

The system is in Hebrew

Navigating public mental health services when you're still finding your linguistic footing is difficult - and often exhausting.

Waiting lists stretch for month

Private care means finding the right practitioner alone, without a network, and often waiting weeks before anything starts.

Being heard isn't the same as being understood.

A practitioner who doesn't grasp the immigrant experience, the cultural duality, or what it means to live in a country at war, may struggle to truly help.

Asking for help feels complicated

Especially for Lone Soldiers. Discrete, private, fully online access removes the barrier entirely.

Health professional writing background

Treatment is too expensive

to maintain. ₪500 for regular private sessions can be difficult to sustain. Starting from ₪249, Shemesh makes it easier.

What our clients say about us:

People like you. Results you can feel.

Real feedback from Lone Soldiers, Olim and students who've been through it.

"I'd been putting off getting help for months because I didn't even know where to start. Within a week of finding Shemesh I had my first session. My health professional understood exactly what I was going through; the army, being away from family, all of it."

Daniel M
Lone Soldier, originally from the Uk

"Making Aliyah was the best decision I've ever made and also the hardest. Having support in English, from someone who gets the immigrant experience, made a real difference to my first year here."

Sarah R.
Olah, arrived from the US

"University abroad is stressful enough. Add a security situation and being far from home and it was overwhelming. Shemesh gave me someone to talk to who actually understood and I didn't have to navigate anything in Hebrew."

Sarah Jamie L.
International Student, Tel Aviv.

Real support. This week, not months away.
