Jessica Salgado

Hola! I’m Jessica Salgado, a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor serving clients virtually throughout Georgia. I am a bilingual therapist that speaks Spanish and Spanglish. I’m a native of Los Angeles and now call Metro Atlanta home. I became a counselor because I believe people deserve a space where they can be honest about what they’re experiencing without being reduced to a diagnosis, a difficult chapter, or a single moment in their lives. I meet you where you are, and together we work toward where you want to be.

As a bilingual therapist, I provide services in English, Spanish, and Spanglish.

I also believe that culture is an important part of understanding the whole person. Our families, communities, identities, experiences, traditions, expectations, and environments can all influence the way we understand ourselves and navigate the world. I work with adolescents, adults, and families from diverse cultural backgrounds and identities. I help individuals cope with current stress and past trauma. I help people that are struggling with change, whether its traumatic and in the past, or stressful and occurring now.

You are the driver of your therapy. I’m there to help guide you, offer perspective, ask the questions that may be difficult to ask yourself, and provide a safe space to explore what may be getting in the way of the life you want.I will meet you where you are at. It's OK to not be OK, but you do not have to go through this alone. We will work through your issues collaboratively, whether there is trauma, cultural stress, major changes, work/school related stress, relationships issues, identity issues, or family change. I treat holistically, helping individuals while taking their medical, cultural, environmental, backgrounds into account when treating their mental health. The treatment I provide is tailored to you and your needs.
