About Randall

Randall Allen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with ten years of clinical experience based in New Mexico. He holds a Master of Counseling degree with High Distinction and a Bachelor of Education. He works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, anger, depression, addictions, intimacy issues, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

Randall usually draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. He also integrates Choice Theory and Reality Therapy ideas as part of his process. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and on changing thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of daily functioning.

His style is straightforward and conversational. He invites clients to talk through feelings and reactions, and sometimes shares personal experience when it could help move things forward. The work often centers on communication problems, control issues, commitment questions, and symptoms tied to stress or grief.

Randall also addresses adoption and foster care topics, caregiver stress, fatherhood concerns, money and financial issues, and struggles with isolation or forgiveness. He aims to help people develop tools they can use outside sessions to manage intense emotions and recurring patterns.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's experience. It makes space for the client to lead the conversation while the therapist reflects and clarifies feelings, which can help with anger that stems from unmet needs or communication breakdowns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to test unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. This can be useful for workplace anger, rumination, and patterns that lead to snapping at others.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes and clear goals. Sessions tend to identify what works, build on strengths, and try brief experiments between meetings to reduce anger flare-ups and improve problem solving.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will help clients pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is reviewed. That means trying different techniques and deciding together what helps most.

The biography does not specify which online or in-person session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow practicing new skills in everyday settings, which can help with managing anger in real life.
