Hi! My name is Jessica Busekist and I am a Mental Health Counselor in NY state. I have been providing therapy and support for over eight years in a variety of settings and with people of all ages and backgrounds.
I believe that it is important to meet people where they are at and allow you as the client to be in charge of your treatment. My goal is to help you determine what your needs are and what the best path is to achieving your goals and improving your life.
Whether you know exactly what you need (which don't worry, most people don't) and just need some help along the way; you are looking for skills to give your strength and courage; have deep hurts or traumas that you want to address; or you are just looking for support to talk about ongoing concerns and stressors, I'm here to help.
I know that finding a good therapist that is the right fit for you is important, just like finding the right doctor. It's important that you take the time and feel that our counseling relationship is right for you. After all, your time is valuable and your mental health is important; and as a good provider I believe that you deserve the best treatment and I will do my best to provide that.

I cannot recommend Jessica highly enough! From our very first session, I felt welcomed and understood. She created a safe and supportive environment where I can openly express my thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Jessica listen’s deeply and her insightful guidance has been transformative for me. I’ve seen significant progress in my mental health and overall well-being since starting therapy.
What I appreciate most is Jessica’s genuine compassion and dedication. Each session feels personalized, and I always leave feeling empowered and ready to tackle my next steps.
