About Randall
Randall Kitchen is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with 25 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma and related issues. He also addresses areas such as grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting struggles, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
He prefers a practical style that asks clients to take responsibility for change and to use their own strengths. He focuses less on labels and more on what each person wants to achieve. He will address spiritual concerns when a client wishes to include them in sessions.
Much of his work has involved addictions and issues often important to men. Over 25 years he has offered individual, group, and family therapy for people dealing with drug and alcohol problems. He describes helping people identify patterns that keep them stuck and then practicing new ways of responding.
His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and on client-centered and emotionally-focused methods. He also uses mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to support change. Sessions emphasize clear steps, skills practice, and checking what works between meetings.
Randall frames goals in everyday terms. He helps people break big problems into smaller, concrete tasks. He encourages regular check-ins on progress and adjusts plans if a strategy is not helping.
How his approaches translate to online work
Randall uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and to create small experiments clients can practice between sessions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday problems because it focuses on concrete skills and step-by-step plans.He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and working from the client's perspective to set goals and priorities. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and name core emotions and then try new ways of responding in relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to select techniques that fit a client's needs and preferences.
