About Alex Ribbentrop, LCSW

I founded Live Free Psychotherapy as way of offering specialized care to individuals, couples, and families. I focus on helping people navigate complex issues like trauma, family system dynamics, relationship and professional stressors, and mental health challenges. I am a licensed therapist in Virginia, Maryland, and Florida, with advanced training in EMDR and certification in the treatment of complex trauma.

My approach is trauma-informed, rooted in empathy, and dedicated to helping you discover meaning and purpose in your life.

Clients often describe me as warm, authentic, and supportive. If you are ready to start making meaningful change, I am here to walk with you.

Why Choose Live Free Psychotherpy

Helping High-Achievers Find Meaning & Connection Beyond Success

R

Existential Exploration

If you’re feeling like your accomplishments don’t hold the meaning they once did, or you’re asking “What’s next?” existential exploration can help you reconnect with a deeper purpose beyond societal expectations.

R

Identity & Authenticity

For those who feel disconnected from their true selves or uncertain about who they are beyond their successes, we’re here to help you rediscover what truly defines you, free from external validation or past achievements.

R

Relational Challenges

If relationships feel strained or unfulfilling, you might be struggling to find authentic connections. We support you in understanding and overcoming relational patterns that may be holding you back from deeper, more genuine bonds.

R

Navigating Life Transitions

Major changes—whether personal or professional—can leave you feeling unmoored or uncertain about your next steps. We’re here to help you find clarity and confidence as you realign with your evolving sense of self.

R

Stress & Vulnerability

If the pressures of success feel overwhelming or if letting down your guard feels challenging, we provide a safe space to embrace vulnerability as a powerful step toward self-discovery and resilience.

R

Inner Critic & Self-Worth

If you’re constantly battling self-doubt or feel like you’re never “enough” despite your achievements, we can help you quiet the inner critic and cultivate a more compassionate, grounded sense of self-worth.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What types of therapy do you offer?

We specialize in existential and psychodynamic therapy, helping high-achieving individuals navigate:

Perfectionism
Questions of meaning and purpose
Interpersonal and family system dynamics
Burnout
The pressures of leadership
Wondering what comes after success or achieving their goals

Is Online Therapy as Effective as In-Person Therapy?

Yes! Research shows that online therapy is just as effective as in-person therapy for many concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, and identity-related challenges. It also offers greater convenience, flexibility, and accessibility, allowing you to engage in therapy from the comfort of your space.

Do you accept insurance?

We are an out-of-network provider, but we can provide superbills for potential reimbursement. We also accept HSA/FSA payments.

Why should I talk to a therapist instead of a friend?

While friends provide valuable support, a therapist offers professional, unbiased guidance rooted in evidence-based approaches. Therapy provides a safe, structured space to explore deeper issues, patterns, and emotional challenges that friends may not be equipped to address.

What should I expect from a free 15-minute consultation?

The consultation is an opportunity to discuss your concerns, learn about our therapeutic approach, and see if we’re the right fit for you. There’s no pressure—just a chance to explore your options.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple! Schedule a free consultation or call me directly at (561) 507-113 to discuss your goals and see if our approach is the right fit for you.
