Martin Ciocca Vasino

Hello my name is Martin,

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of combined experience as a mental health therapist and wellness coach. My clinical background includes working with adolescents, adults, families, and older adults across a wide range of concerns such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, adoption related challenges, ADHD, weight concerns, and LGBTQ related experiences. I hold bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and Philosophy from the University of Oregon, a Master in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from George Fox University, and a Post Graduate Certificate in Foster and Adoptive Family Therapy.

I blend trauma informed, brain-based, and holistic approaches including art, movement, somatic awareness, with ACT and DBT skills to help clients build resilience and reconnect with their most authentic goals. My counseling style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in cultural awareness, respect, and compassion. I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels and I strive instead to create a space where clients feel supported, empowered, and genuinely heard.

In our first session, we’ll take time to understand what brings you to therapy, what feels most important to address, and what goals you’d like to work toward. I invite clients to share at a comfortable pace without pressure or expectation. We will begin exploring your history, current concerns, and strengths while discussing the therapeutic approaches that may fit you best. My goal is to create a foundation of trust, clarity, and safety so you leave feeling understood and supported in the direction you want to move.
