Affordable mental health support for Anglos in Israel
At Shemesh, we understand the unique challenges faced by olim, international students, and lone soldiers living in Israel, especially during these uncertain times. Accessing quality mental health support shouldn't be a luxury—it should be a lifeline.

Therapists who understand your experience
Our therapists are specially trained to understand the realities of life in Israel today, including the ongoing challenges caused by conflict and war. Our therapists are trained by in-depth material covering issues that Anglos face in addition to experience from previous patients. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, stress, or loneliness, our team knows the specific difficulties Anglos face, from cultural transitions to emotional struggles. You're not alone, and we’re here to help—where and when you need it most.

Our Story
Hi, I’m Eitan! Originally from South Africa, I made the big move to Israel in 2022 and now study at Reichman University in Herzliya.
The idea for Shemesh came to me as I noticed a troubling trend among my peers—many were paying outrageous prices for therapy ($250+), while others avoided seeking help entirely, either because they couldn’t afford it or didn’t believe it was worth the cost.
​
Knowing the exceptional reputation of South African mental health professionals, I saw an opportunity to bridge the gap. Six months later, Shemesh is making a difference: Olim are feeling more at home, international students are managing stress more effectively, and lone soldiers are sleep better at night—literally.
