About Ciro

Dr. Ciro Visone is a Psychologist with ten years of clinical experience. He practices in California and speaks English and Italian. He focuses on a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, eating issues, ADHD, addictions, grief, sleeping problems, and life transitions.

He also pays attention to aging and geriatric issues and to chronic pain, illness, and disability. He looks at how physical health and mental health interact and helps people find practical ways to manage symptoms. Sessions emphasize understanding what matters to each person and building routines that fit everyday life.

His approach blends cognitive behavioral ideas with acceptance-based work and person-centered listening. He uses these tools to help people change unhelpful thoughts, accept difficult feelings, and clarify personal values. He also draws on existential and Jungian perspectives to talk about meaning, identity, and life purpose.

Dr. Visone tailors work to each person's situation. He pays attention to culture, past influences, and biological factors that affect mood and behavior. The aim is to help people regain autonomy and move toward their own goals.

People seeking help can expect straightforward conversation and practical steps. He frames therapy as a collaborative process that balances immediate coping strategies with longer-term exploration of values and purpose.

Approaches that translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based actions even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, chronic health challenges, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, which often helps with anxiety, mood, sleep, and eating concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, giving people space to make their own discoveries and decisions about direction of care.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. Early sessions typically focus on what is most pressing and then adapt over time based on how things are progressing.

Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten a check-in when time is tight, or let someone participate without traveling to an office. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote work by focusing on skills practice, values-based planning, and regular progress review.
