Pietro (Pete) Martucci

Pietro (Pete) Martucci is a licensed professional clinical counselor practicing in Minnesota. He brings seven years of hands-on therapy experience and is completing a PhD in Counselor Education with a specialization in crisis and trauma.

He holds a Minnesota professional clinical counselor license (MN LPCC 2674) and has earned credentials as a Certified Clinical Trauma Counselor, a Disaster Mental Health Counselor, and an Approved Clinical Supervisor. Much of his work focuses on understanding how traumatic experiences shape thoughts and behaviors and on helping people move forward from those patterns.

Pete works with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, self-esteem and body image issues, relationship and family conflicts, parenting challenges, anger management, and coping with life changes. He uses cognitive-behavioral therapy as a foundation because of its practical, skills-based approach, and he also integrates solution-focused techniques to address immediate life stressors and goals.

His style is collaborative and direct - he encourages clients to challenge unhelpful thoughts and to take steps outside familiar comfort zones while treating each person with respect and without judgment. He frames therapy as a joint process aimed at learning, growth, and meaningful change toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
