Randall Kitchen, LPC

Randall Kitchen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 25 years of experience. He uses a strengths-based, person-centered approach and partners with people who want to take responsibility for change. He treats each person as a whole - spirit, soul, and body - and will address spiritual concerns when a client asks for that focus.

Randall helps people face addictions and related challenges by combining practical strategies with supportive discussion. He also brings experience helping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, intimacy issues, and relationship concerns. His work often includes building coping skills and improving communication patterns.

For many years Randall provided individual, group, and family therapy focused on substance use and recovery. That history informs how he structures sessions now, with an emphasis on concrete steps and clear goals. He prefers to avoid heavy focus on labels and instead centers on personal strengths and values.

Randall uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and emotionally focused ideas to help people change unhelpful patterns. He also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support readiness and ongoing progress. Sessions aim to be practical and goal oriented while respecting each person's pace.

People seeking help with chronic illness, caregiver stress, or life transitions can expect straightforward conversations about what’s manageable. He also addresses issues such as ADHD, eating and sleeping concerns, and challenges related to adoption and blended family situations when they come up.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respecting each person's perspective and supporting them at their own pace. In practice that means sessions emphasize listening, reflecting, and helping clients identify goals they want to reach rather than imposing solutions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and simple experiments to change patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or addictive behavior, which can be done in regular sessions and brief homework tasks.

Emotionally-Focused ideas help people notice and name core emotions and improve interactions that cause recurring conflict. This can be useful for intimacy concerns, communication problems, and relationship repair work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to the client's goals, needs, and preferences. Decisions about which techniques to use are collaborative and revisited as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into a busy day, makes it easier to follow up between appointments, and supports continuity of care when travel or schedules change. Online work can also simplify brief check-ins or allow for a quieter setting during a work break, depending on the format offered.
