How Shemesh works
“Having a Shemesh therapist is like somebody coming in and kind of shining a light down the path. It’s still up to me to walk that path, but it just makes it a little bit easier.”
Melissa
“Instead of just texting my friends, I text my therapist and there’s no judgment on what I say.”
Evert
“The therapist I’m working with gives me thoughtful feedback and is very prompt with responses. I’ve been doing both the video therapy sessions as well as the messaging.”
April
“I got connected to a provider, from the same area, someone that looks like me. So they understand the issue that I may have.”
Corisha
“Shemesh has given me a chance to not give up on myself. It’s helped me see things very differently.”
Ozzie
“Shemesh has changed my life because it’s given me the confidence to do difficult things.”
