Randall Allen

Randall Allen is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, anger, depression, and related concerns. He holds a Master of Counseling degree with High Distinction from Colorado Christian University and has practiced for 10 years. He is licensed as an LPC and as an LMHC and works from New Mexico.

Randall favors a straightforward, collaborative approach in sessions. He often uses Choice Theory and Reality Therapy ideas while drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. In practical terms, that means he helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts, test small behavior changes, and set clear goals to move forward.

Sessions aim to be a judgment-free time to talk through feelings and make realistic plans. He may share relevant personal experiences when it seems helpful. The emphasis is on developing skills and habits that lead to more satisfying daily life, not on labels or quick fixes.

Randall has worked with people facing addictions, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and challenges tied to adoption, caregiving, money, or fatherhood. He also addresses issues such as communication problems, commitment and control concerns, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and narcissism-related dynamics.

People who choose him can expect a mix of listening, practical exercises, and goal-setting. He describes therapy as a partnership where courage and steady steps create change. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How his approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and respect. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what they say, and helps people make choices that fit their values. This approach works well for relationship hurts, low self-esteem, and feeling stuck.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and stress management.

Solution-Focused Therapy aims to find practical, short-term steps toward the life a person wants. Sessions often set clear goals and track small wins, which can be useful for commitment issues, communication problems, and making life changes after separation or loss.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with clients to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. Decisions about techniques and the pace of work are made together based on needs and preferences.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, with fewer logistics and less travel time. It also allows brief check-ins or goal-focused sessions that fit around work or caregiving demands, helping people keep momentum between meetings.
