Jessica Vergara, MSEd

Psychotherapist
NY
With over 15 years of experience in school psychology, I bring a deep understanding of human behavior, development, and emotional well-being to my work as a mental health counselor. My career began in schools, where I supported children struggling with emotional and behavioral challenges. Collaborating with students, parents, and teachers showed me firsthand how vital mental health is to both individual growth and family harmony. This experience inspired me to continue my education so I could expand my reach and provide counseling not just to children, but also to adults, couples, and families within the broader community.
