About Randall

Randall McBride is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of experience helping adults cope with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and addiction. He approaches therapy in a straightforward way and focuses on giving people real tools they can use between sessions. He aims to make sessions practical and approachable for someone worried and short on time.

Randall trained at Brigham Young University for his bachelor’s degree in psychology and earned his Master of Social Work at Arizona State University. He combines a person-centered outlook with techniques from cognitive behavioral work, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-informed thinking, mindfulness, and the Gottman Method when relationship skills are relevant.

In sessions he listens first and then collaborates on goals the client sets. He often gives concrete coping strategies, short assignments, and small challenges to practice. The emphasis is on leaving each meeting with something useful to try right away.

Common concerns Randall supports include grief, anger, compassion fatigue, intimacy-related issues, and life transitions. He also works with obsessions and compulsions, phobias, postpartum depression, sex addiction, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and young adult issues.

Randall practices in Arizona and conducts therapy in English. He uses his role to help people feel heard while offering clear, practical ways to change patterns that cause pain. To begin, the process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client’s goals. In practice this means sessions start by identifying what matters most to the person and shaping work around those priorities. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to values-driven actions; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current patterns and can help with intimacy issues and relationship trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist works together with each person to try methods that match their needs and preferences. That collaborative stance means approaches can be adjusted over time based on what proves useful.

Confirm the current session options before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for quick check-ins or workday appointments. It also supports practicing skills between meetings in the client’s usual environments and makes it simpler to keep momentum between sessions.
