Harvey Dedemadiz

Harvey Dedemadiz is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and career concerns. He speaks English and Spanish and aims to meet clients with respect and practical support.

He describes his work as collaborative. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now, making sense of past hurts when needed, and learning day-to-day skills to cope better. Harvey names trauma and family conflict as areas he often helps with, and he brings experience from corrections, child investigations, ministry, crisis intervention, and community practice.

Harvey says he uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and offers faith-informed care when clients want it. He emphasizes listening first, then helping people try concrete strategies that fit their values and goals. The tone in sessions is direct but compassionate, with attention to real-life problems like parenting stress, workplace strain, or major life changes.

Clients can expect practical tools for emotional regulation and communication, plus space to process loss or difficult experiences. Harvey highlights building resilience and everyday routines that support change over time. He also notes his bilingual ability helps him connect with Spanish-speaking clients.

With three years of clinical experience as an LMHC in Florida, he draws on varied settings to inform his work. He encourages people to bring their questions and to shape therapy around what matters most to them.

How his evidence-based methods translate online

Harvey describes his work as grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people handle stress, trauma, and relationship strain. One commonly used approach focuses on building practical coping skills - teaching breathing, grounding, and routine changes that reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed strategies that help people safely process difficult experiences and regain a sense of control over emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Harvey plans to work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person's goals, background, and values, including offering faith-informed care when requested. He listens first, then suggests techniques to try, and adjusts based on what helps.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or remove the need to be on camera when that helps. Licensed professionals can often adapt evidence-based tools to work well across different formats, and Harvey encourages a practical discussion about what will work best for each person.
