About Pietro

Pietro (Pete) Martucci welcomes people looking for help with men's wellbeing and related concerns. He is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - LPCC practicing in Minnesota with seven years of counseling experience. Pete aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and other challenges. He keeps language plain and focuses on practical steps you can take day to day.

Pete uses clear, goal-oriented methods that help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try different behaviors. He often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered listening and solution-focused work. That means sessions mix active skill-building with time to be heard and understood.

His background includes years working with trauma, grief, and crisis situations, and he has focused research and practice in how traumatic events shape thinking and behavior. He has helped people with relationship problems, body image, parenting strain, and caregiving stress. Pete also supports those dealing with substance use and codependency challenges.

In sessions he challenges avoidance gently and encourages small, manageable steps toward change. He emphasizes collaboration so goals and methods fit each person’s life. He aims to help people build skills they can use between sessions to manage mood, reduce worry, and improve relationships.

People who choose Pete can expect straightforward coaching, respect, and a focus on practical tools alongside reflective conversation. He asks clients to set clear goals and works with them to track progress over time.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. In practice this means the therapist reflects what the person says, asks curious questions, and helps clarify goals and values. This approach is useful for people seeking validation and a steady place to talk through feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Sessions often include simple exercises, homework, and step-by-step plans to reduce worry, lift mood, or change habits. CBT is practical for stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss clients' needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins during the week. It also lets people use techniques shown in session in their everyday settings so new skills can be practiced between meetings.
