Background and approach
Over his career he has supported people through grief, career transitions, intimacy-related worries, obsessive thoughts, phobias, and postpartum depression. He brings varied approaches to fit different concerns rather than a single method. His style is person-centered.
Clients help set goals and drive the process. He listens carefully and offers straightforward feedback and weekly assignments to practice new skills outside sessions. Randall draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits.
He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them. Attachment-based ideas inform work on relationships and connection. Sessions aim to leave people with usable coping skills, short exercises, and a plan for the week.
Randall emphasizes gradual progress over time and adapts tools to each person’s life. He is based in Arizona and works in English.
