I have greatly appreciated Randall’s advice and since of humor. He is easy to talk to and let my guard down and let it all hang out. He is kind , thoughtful, and most importantly he provokes thought on my part.

Hello. If you’re seeking a senior therapist, with many years of experience and continuing education, who is known for his compassion, wisdom, experience and sense of humor, you may have come to the right place. After some years as a carpenter, building and remodeling homes, I returned to school to complete a B.A. in psychology and social work followed by an M.Ed in counseling psychology. I’ve worked in a variety of settings as a therapist, starting as a psychiatric technician in a trauma care hospital in 1993, later developing a rural mental health clinic with five other therapists and my last eight years of practice in the student counseling department for the University of Wisconsin. I have been licensed in Washington state as well as in Wisconsin as an LPC. I also have a substance abuse treatment licensure.
I’ve had a lot of training along the way and have learned a great deal from my clients as well. My approach to helping my clients is based in this experience, training and a caring sense of the uniqueness and value of every individual. I draw on a variety of technical models of therapy, based on what my clients seem to need and who they are. While I have provided therapy in several different settings utilizing several specialties, as a semi-retired counselor I am now focused on working with clients who are seeking support for wellness, personal growth and/or anxiety or depression, using MINDFULNESS based approaches. I consider myself very wholistic in my approach to therapy. I recognize that there is a seamless interaction of processes between the mind, body and spirit. I believe that if we fail to recognize these connections, we may miss the mark in achieving the healing and growth we're hoping for. My goal is to help you achieve this healing and growth. I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

He has been so helpful to me for only a short time. I could see the improvement and he has allowed me to take the steps needed to improve my mental health
I really enjoy speaking to Randall as my therapist. He is a great listener and always offers an interesting perspective to my issues and concerns. He is very kind and gentle when helping me and he has always made feel very safe when speaking to him. There was no topic that was scary or weird to bring up, and I never felt judged for my thoughts or ideas on any topic we discussed. He provided tools that have helped get significantly better than when I first started therapy. One of the most powerful skills or concepts he help me develop, was understanding the difference between self confidence and self compassion. I literally remind myself to treat myself with kindness and compassion every day. He has helped immensely.
I was really excited to have a more wholistic and dynamic approach to therapy. I’m very happy I chose to send him an intro message telling him about my hobbies/interests/lifestyle to ensure I had a therapist who saw me as a whole person and not just a list of symptoms. I feel very understood and heard by him and it has been very refreshing to feel like I’m always making progress from one session to the next. And I appreciate that he listened to my individual goals and keeps me on track during sessions. I have a long way to go but it is such a relief feeling like I’m actually getting better.
