About Randall
Randall Kitchen is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) who focuses on practical, strengths-based work. He centers sessions on each person's goals and helps people take active steps toward better functioning and wellbeing. Randall frames clients as whole people and is open to discussing spiritual concerns when a client wants that included.
He brings 25 years of experience, with a long history supporting people affected by addiction. Much of his clinical time has involved individual work and group support related to substance use. He emphasizes direct, solution-oriented conversations and helps clients face problems rather than getting stuck on labels.
Randall often draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the client's perspective. He also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful patterns and emotionally-focused approaches to improve close relationships. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are tools he uses to help clients notice patterns and find motivation for change.
He works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. He also lists additional focuses such as adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and pain, and caregiver stress.
Randall practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. He aims to help people build on strengths, clarify goals, and take concrete steps toward improved daily functioning and relationships.
How these approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy puts the person’s needs and perspective first. In practice this means the therapist listens carefully, follows the client's lead, and adjusts goals so they match what matters most to the client. This approach helps when someone wants a space to be heard and to shape their own plan for change.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It uses simple, practical techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking and to build new habits. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday struggles.
Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) helps people better understand and express emotions that affect close relationships. It can be useful for improving communication, addressing intimacy-related issues, and reducing patterns that cause repeated conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean trying one method for a while, then adjusting based on what helps most.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats offered before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce time spent traveling, and allow for brief check-ins when a longer in-person session is harder to schedule. Therapists and licensed professionals typically discuss what will work best at the first appointment and adapt sessions to fit practical needs.
