Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Dr. Ciro Visone



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping individuals notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with personal values. It is often used for anxiety, persistent stress, and adjusting to long-term health challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to manage symptoms. CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, obsessive behaviors, and mood-related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and creating a supportive space where the client’s own goals and pace guide the work; this approach can be especially helpful for building self-esteem, navigating relationships, and exploring life purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Visone works collaboratively with clients to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. Clients and the therapist decide together which strategies fit best for the presenting issues.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for scheduling and continuity of care. Video calls and phone sessions allow for real-time conversations, while live chat and text-based messaging provide accessible options for check-ins and support between sessions. These formats make it easier to receive regular care from licensed professionals while accommodating work, family, and geographic constraints.
