About Ciro

Dr. Ciro Visone is a licensed Clinical Neuropsychologist, Health Psychologist, and Military Psychologist with 10 years of clinical experience. He combines a neuroscience-informed perspective with clinical training, holding an MD and a doctorate in clinical health psychology - the MD denotes a medical doctor and the doctorate represents advanced training in clinical and health-focused psychological assessment and treatment. He applies this background to understand how brain function, medical factors, and life experience shape behavior and emotion.

He works with severe mental illness including depression, anxiety, trauma, adjustment to medical illness, and eating disorders, and he offers behavioral strategies for medical concerns such as diabetes management and weight loss. He also evaluates and treats neurocognitive conditions, including ADHD, traumatic and acquired brain injuries, and age-related memory disorders such as dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases.

Dr. Visone practices from a biopsychosocial orientation, emphasizing the interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors. He helps clients clarify purpose and meaning as part of recovery, while addressing biological contributors to symptoms. Treatment is tailored to individual differences with attention to cultural and personal needs, and he supports clients in developing autonomy and a personal path toward self-actualization. His approach acknowledges past psychological influences, considers their impact on present functioning, and explores how those factors may affect future physical and emotional wellbeing.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people learn to make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying what matters most to them and taking committed action toward those values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with chronic health conditions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms and build practical skills for everyday challenges such as mood disorders, anxiety, and compulsive behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and a nonjudgmental stance from the therapist, supporting self-exploration, self-esteem, and stronger relationships through collaborative, person-focused work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and licensed professionals work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Dr. Visone tailors interventions and integrates approaches as appropriate so that treatment aligns with the client’s priorities and life context.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change. For many people, remote sessions provide a practical and effective way to access therapists and progress toward meaningful goals.
