About Pietro

Pietro (Pete) Martucci welcomes people who are looking for practical, collaborative support with stress, anxiety, trauma, substance concerns, self-esteem, and relationship strains. He centers the work on helping clients identify unhelpful patterns and develop skills to manage everyday pressures and significant life changes.

Background and approach

Pete uses straightforward tools to help clients explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors so they can move toward clearer goals and healthier routines. Pete practices from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy foundation and blends client-centered and emotionally focused ideas to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

He has seven years of counseling experience and holds the LPCC credential in Minnesota, bringing years of clinical exposure to issues like depression, addictions, body image, parenting challenges, caregiver stress, and compounding trauma effects. His style emphasizes respect, curiosity, and a nonjudgmental stance so clients can try new ways of coping and grow at their own pace.

Clients who prefer a practical, evidence-informed approach with room for emotional processing may find his combination of skill building and empathic listening useful. Pete offers multiple ways to meet, and he works with people to set goals that fit their life circumstances and priorities.

Combining practical methods with online flexibility

CBT helps clients notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through focused exercises and homework, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and improve daily functioning. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and support so clients feel heard and can explore values and goals at their own pace; it is especially useful when people need a safe space to work through emotional concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying and processing core emotions to improve emotional regulation and connection, which can help with relationship tensions and attachment-related issues.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, try techniques, and adjust the focus based on what feels most helpful. Together they set goals and pick strategies that align with the client's preferences and life circumstances.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for busy schedules, travel constraints, or those who prefer remote options. These formats allow ongoing work with licensed professionals from different locations and make it easier to maintain continuity of care while using CBT and other therapeutic tools in ways that fit daily life.
