About Harvey
Harvey Dedemadiz is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, trauma, and major life changes. He offers a calm, direct approach and welcomes conversations in English or Spanish. He aims to meet clients where they are and work alongside them toward practical change.
Harvey uses a faith-informed perspective when clients want it, while respecting each person’s beliefs. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical coping skills, and steadier day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
He draws on real-world experience from corrections, child investigations, crisis response, ministry, community practice, and independent practice. That background has shaped how he handles trauma, relationship strain, and family conflict. He keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what helps most in daily life.
He also supports people dealing with career stress, low self-esteem, anger, and compassion fatigue. Clients can expect a collaborative style. Harvey listens for what matters most, then suggests simple strategies to try between sessions.
Progress is measured by how people feel and what they can do differently at home and work. As a bilingual Florida LMHC he provides services across state lines and accepts international clients. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site.

Approaches that guide online parenting and trauma work
Harvey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on safety, coping, and restoring daily functioning. One common approach he applies centers on trauma-informed care, which looks at how past events affect current thoughts, feelings, and behavior and builds coping tools to reduce distress. Another approach emphasizes practical skills for stress and mood management, teaching concrete strategies you can use between sessions to manage anxiety, regulate emotions, and handle parenting challenges.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. He talks with each person about their goals, values, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together the client and therapist try methods and adjust the plan based on what’s useful and realistic for the person’s life and family routines.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you work face-to-face from wherever you are, while phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to get shorter updates, ask quick questions, or stay connected between longer sessions. These options help people keep therapy going around work, childcare, and other responsibilities.
