An experienced mental helth professional
A few words about Dr. Z
I’m Dr. Z, Dr. Mark R. Zuccolo, licensed psychotherapist, counselor, behavioral coach and consultant in private practice at Bellagio Psychotherapeutics in Alpharetta, Georgia and online via telehealth.
In my clinical practice, I prefer to work from a cognitive behavioral approach (CBT), and other approaches as needed, such as EMDR, CPT, ACT, Psychodynamic, and more.
The goal of my therapeutic work is to help individuals, couples and families identify and change the causes of dysfunctional thinking and behavior in order to make more balanced and realistic appraisals of themselves, their world and their future, enjoy more satisfying relationships, and improve their communication and problem-solving skills.
