About Randee
Randee Olive is a licensed social worker with 19 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress and anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief, and trauma. Randee aims for clear, practical steps so clients feel steadier in daily life.
She uses a client-centered approach that focuses on each person's story and goals. Sessions are conversational and goal-driven, with room to process feelings and plan small changes. Randee draws on a mix of methods to match what a person needs in the moment.
Background and approach
Over nearly two decades of practice she has worked with concerns that range from bipolar disorder and addiction-related patterns to parenting strain and career stress. Her additional focus areas include attachment issues, body image, caregiving stress, and the effects of adoption and foster care. This breadth helps her notice patterns that show up across different parts of life.
Randee blends skills from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She explains tools plainly and helps people practice them between sessions. Many clients find the mix useful for both immediate relief and longer-term change.
She holds KS LSCSW and AZ LCSW credentials and works with adults in Kansas. Sessions are offered by phone, video, live chat, or text-based messaging. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling to fit the client's needs.
How Randee’s approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that align with their values. This approach can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes where someone wants to reconnect with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying small behavior changes to shift mood and reactions. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to patterns in close relationships and how early connections shape present-day trust and intimacy; it can help with relationship challenges and attachment issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and daily routines, then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change over time based on progress and comfort.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist see nonverbal cues and run fuller sessions, while phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, and written reminders of tools to practice. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care around busy schedules and unpredictable life demands.
