His practice centers on assessment and treatment of conditions such as ADD and ADHD, developmental disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorders, conduct disorders, obsessive compulsive and generalized anxiety, and depressive disorders. He emphasizes that problems seen in young people rarely occur in isolation and frequently reflect strains within family relationships, so effective care attends to the needs of all family members.

He places high value on listening to each person’s story and making sure clients know they are heard and respected.

Dr. Pedigo is also a member of the International Trauma Therapists Association. His work is informed by a Christian worldview centered on his relationship with Jesus Christ, and he brings genuine compassion and empathy to every therapeutic relationship.
