About Pietro
Pietro (Pete) Martucci is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Minnesota. He focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, or big life changes. He also supports those dealing with trauma, relationship strain, parenting stress, and issues like body image or isolation. Sessions aim to be collaborative and respectful, with a straightforward approach that encourages small, measurable steps forward.
Pete draws on cognitive-behavioral methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change the actions that follow. He pairs that with client-centered work to make space for each person’s experience and goals. Mindfulness and motivational techniques are added when they fit the situation and the client’s preferences.
He has seven years of counseling experience and a longer career in mental health. His work has included study of trauma and its effects on thinking and behavior, and he lists coping with natural or human-caused disaster among his focus areas. Pete emphasizes practical tools people can use between sessions to manage symptoms and handle daily stressors.
In sessions he aims to be direct but warm, asking clients to try tasks that stretch their comfort in manageable steps. The process is framed as a collaboration where goals are clear and progress is tracked. People looking for focused, skill-based support paired with understanding may find this a good fit.

How Pete’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and making the sessions about the client’s priorities. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects back what matters, and helps set goals based on the client’s values and needs. This approach helps when someone needs space to sort feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses clear exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and for building skills to handle triggers or cravings.
Emotionally-focused ideas help people notice and name strong feelings and try new ways of responding in relationships and daily life. These methods can be helpful when patterns of interaction or emotional reactivity create repeated problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and daily routines. That collaboration includes checking what helps and adjusting the plan over time.
If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins between sessions. It can also let someone use video, phone, or other supported options when those formats suit their schedule or technical needs.
