Dr. Keren Shemesh is a clinical psychologist and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy specialist. She employs highly effective therapeutic modalities for the treatment of depression and anxiety-related disorders, in children and adults.

As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, I am here to help YOU live a better and happier life—through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). 

​

CBT is the first-line treatment for mood related problems like depression and anxiety. It is also the best treatment available for behavioral patterns like procrastination, or perfectionism. I chose evidence based treatment as a main treatment modality because I love seeing my clients getting better, and I love it even more when the recovery process is rather rapid.
​
As a CBT therapist, I work collaboratively with my clients. As a first step, I'd like for us to get clear on your goal for treatment. May they be managing anxiety, getting-rid-of self-defeating thoughts, overcoming depression, or learning to manage challenging relationships. What are your goals? What would you like help with? Having goals, can guide our work, and meeting your goals can mean that it is time to end treatment.
