Ranked top three in Mountain View, CA, 2024

Welcome. I am Dr. Keren Shemesh, PhD, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist providing evidence-based CBT therapy in Mountain View, CA. Specializing in CBT, I offer compassionate, results-oriented treatment for adults, teens, and children navigating anxiety, depression, and OCD. Whether you are looking for specialized OCD treatment or tools to manage daily stress, my practice is designed to help you break free from stuck patterns. For your convenience, I provide both in-person therapy at my Mountain View office and secure telehealth sessions for residents throughout the entire state of California.
As a seasoned clinician, I am dedicated to providing the most effective, evidence-based approaches to recovery. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because its structured nature fosters rapid, sustainable progress. My approach is deeply collaborative; I walk alongside my clients to support their unique goals while equipping them with practical tools to break long-standing, unhelpful habits.
I love my work and care deeply for my clients' growth. My practice focuses on treating depression, anxiety, and restoring health to strained relationships. I hold extensive experience in treating anxiety-related disorders, including OCD, Tics, and panic attacks, with an approach that is equally effective for children and adults.
