Teletherapy for Blakeney - Charlotte, NC

You can never seem to get on track. You’ve tried everything you can think of, from ideas from YouTube to suggestions from other people. The message you’re getting through life is to try harder. And just trying harder never seems to work. Whether you have ADHD or some of the traits attributed to it, trying harder isn’t going to work. What the well-meaning people who try to help don’t know is that you need to try something different. Each time you lose your keys, forget to turn off the stove, or get sidetracked and lose track of time, you roll your eyes at yourself. Not again!

Counseling should be a safe and judgment-free place for individuals to voice their concerns. In a world where we are constantly judged, I feel that counseling provides a unique place to allow for personal understanding and growth while reflecting on what drives our concerns, emotions, and behaviors. The counseling journey should be a joint partnership to help the client realize their own potential for growth. I use a variety of therapeutic interventions that are centered around each individual.

​My training and education makes me a good fit for individuals, families, and couples experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem, family conflict, trauma, grief, life stressors and parenting. Many of my clients tend to be women aged 29 to 55 seeking change in their lives - however, I also enjoy working with men, particularly if they have never done therapy before.

Do you ever lay awake at night thinking about things you want to change, thinking about how you want to be happier, thinking that you wish someone understood what you were going through? I am here to help guide you through the process to begin working towards your desired change. I sincerely believe in treating the whole person and understand that many of us have experienced previous trauma/negative experiences, excessive worries that effects our ability to be what and who we want to be in many different areas of our lives.

I have worked with individuals with various concerns, including addiction, grief, ADHD, anxiety, depression and other mood disorders, trauma, personality disorders, relationship issues and disordered eating. I am especially interested in working with issues related to trauma and addiction. I am trained in various trauma modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy. I completed a 60 hour somatic attachment certificate course. I take an eclectic approach to counseling and tailor the sessions to the client's needs.

Hi there! My name is Dr. Jess Ribeiro. I’m a clinical psychologist and university professor with over 15 years of clinical, research, and teaching experience licensed in NC, FL, and NJ. I specialize in the treatment of depression, eating disorders, and anxiety. In my practice, I use leading evidence-based therapies, which are treatments that are backed by decades of scientific research and shown to work. Primarily, these are cognitive-behavioral approaches (e.g., CBT) that are highly collaborative, active, and goal-oriented treatments that help people achieve desired symptom changes quickly and build more fulfilling lives.

Samantha Malfitano LPC: When people feel safe to express all of their feelings, true healing can begin. For many, they have repressed these emotions for years, creating a disconnect from the mind, body & soul, Which separates you from your true self. You may feel stuck, depleted, lacking purpose, motivation & direction. Searching externally within people, places & things to give you relief, only to find this is just a temporary solution. Resulting in symptoms & behaviors such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, panic, self harm, suicidal ideation, substance use, and others, to cope with these old painful emotions & memories.

Psychology is a science and an art. I see therapy through the same lens. As specific as the brain can be there also has to be some flexibility to really understand how someone thinks. I worked in psychology research for 10 years and have been a therapist for 7 years. I am a National Certified Counselor, a Qualified Supervisor, and will be finishing my PhD in 2023. Most of my research and focus in therapy is centered around women’s issues and the ups and downs that can come with being a female.
