About Bruce
Dr. Bruce Pedigo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with 40 years of experience. He works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, addictions, parenting challenges, and ADHD. Sessions focus on practical ways to improve day-to-day relationships and coping.
He approaches problems by listening to each person's story and then looking at the relational patterns that affect daily life. He often frames child and adolescent problems within family interactions, aiming to address how family dynamics shape behavior. This means conversations can include individual concerns alongside the roles family members play.
In sessions he draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness practices. That mix is used to teach skills, change unhelpful thinking, and improve communication. Expect clear, action-oriented steps you can try between meetings.
Dr. Pedigo’s background includes a doctorate focused on child, youth, and family studies and many years working with developmental and behavioral issues. He has worked with matters such as autism spectrum concerns, ADHD, disruptive mood and conduct issues, and divorce-related stress. His experience includes both assessment and treatment situations.
He is based in Florida and provides services in English. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, select the See online therapy options button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
How his therapeutic approaches are used online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating. It helps people notice how early and current relationships shape trust, closeness, and conflict. This can be useful for relationship strains, parenting concerns, and attachment issues.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and understanding. The therapist uses reflective listening and open questions so clients can tell their story and arrive at their own solutions. This approach supports people working through grief, life changes, or self-esteem struggles.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It provides concrete tools to test unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors, which is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision may change over time as different skills are tried and reviewed.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If in-person sessions are being considered, confirm those details through the booking process.
