About Randall

Randall Allen is a licensed counselor who draws on Client-Centered Therapy to guide people toward clearer choices and more satisfying days. He holds a Master of Counseling degree with High Distinction and brings about ten years of professional experience to his work in New Mexico.

Randall emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through thoughts and feelings. He listens first and follows the person’s lead, then offers practical ideas and steps they can try between sessions. He sometimes shares personal experiences when it will help move the work forward.

His background includes helping people manage stress and anxiety, cope with grief, and address relationship and anger issues. He also supports people dealing with addictions, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and intimacy-related concerns. Additional areas he attends to include adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, fatherhood issues, and money or commitment concerns.

Randall uses a mix of approaches - Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Choice Theory/Reality Therapy - to match each person’s needs. He works with clients to set simple, realistic goals and to try new behaviors that align with those goals.

He is licensed as an LPC and as an LMHC in Arizona and New Mexico. Sessions are conducted in English and are arranged through the site’s matching and scheduling process.

How his approaches shape online work

Randall often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following the client’s priorities so they feel understood and respected. This approach helps when someone needs space to sort out feelings and make their own decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try different actions that can change emotions and behavior; this is useful for anxiety, depression, and habit changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying something, checking how it goes, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to a single method.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins during a busy day, and reduce travel time so sessions fit into everyday life. A therapist can also suggest practical at-home exercises and steps to practice between meetings to keep progress moving forward.
