Dr. Bruce Pedigo holds a Doctorate degree with a specialization in Child, Youth, and Family Studies. He has extensive experience with all client populations, but has developed a specialization in dealing with child, adolescent, couples and family issues. These issues include assessment and treatment of ADD/ADHD, Developmental Disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Conduct Disorders, Anxiety (OCD and Generalized Anxiety), and Depressive Disorders.
Dr. Pedigo's clinical belief is that child and adolescent issues rarely occur in a vacuum but instead are a by product of a breakdown in family relationships, that requires an answer that addresses the needs of all family members. The core of his counseling commitment is to work with the individual and family members to bring about relational reconciliation and personal restoration.
One of my core values is a desire to hear each persons "story" We all come from unique place and it is import to me that my clients know that I value them . Each person has won the right to be heard, their opinions and thoughts are important to me.
Dr. Pedigo's varied and extensive clinical experience with all client populations is driven by a core commitment to compassionate care and clinical "best practice". He
is state licensed as a Marriage & Family Therapist and Clinical Social Worker. He is a member of the International Trauma Therapists Association.
He is passionate about the work that he does driven by a Christian world view centered on his relationship with Jesus Christ. He approaches each client with a sense of genuine compassion and empathy.
Dr. Pedigo believes people, who see a need for counseling, want to know that their counselor will be authentic present in their lives. That their desire will be to heard. Clients need to know that the therapist is competent enough to help them move through their difficult situations and move toward healthy resolution.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
