About Randolph
He trained originally in business and theology before completing a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy. Prior roles included pastoral work and program leadership at a Christian camp, and later clinical positions in community clinics, substance use treatment facilities, a state hospital, and jail settings. Those roles shaped his interest in addiction, trauma, and family concerns.
Randy uses a client-centered, goal-oriented style. He combines solution-focused work with cognitive behavioral ideas and existential reflection. Sessions usually focus on identifying patterns, naming unmet needs, and trying concrete changes in thinking or behavior.
He has additional experience with trauma-informed techniques, interpersonal approaches, and elements of the Gottman Method for relationship issues. He also has experience as a crisis intervention trainer and in using motivational values tools to guide conversations about priorities.
People who come to him often seek help for anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction, parenting stress, grief, or coping with life transitions. Randy emphasizes collaboration; goals are set together and progress is reviewed regularly.

How Randy’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s priorities and helps people feel heard while they work toward their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, actions, and mood, and uses simple experiments and exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships through concrete steps and coaching on coping strategies.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Randy will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and situation. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a break, not needing travel time, or avoiding camera use when that helps concentration. Licensed professionals can use a mix of techniques from CBT, DBT, and client-centered therapy to keep sessions practical and focused on everyday changes.
