I'm Randall Allen, a licensed therapist. I earned a Bachelor of Education degree from Northern Arizona University in 1987 and a Master of Counseling degree with High Distinction from Colorado Christian University in 2016. I am licensed in Arizona and New Mexico with over 10 years of professional work experience. My schedule is subject to change as I am a provider on other platforms (both online & in-person) and I have a side job as a high school sports official.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, and anger management. I typically use Choice Theory/Reality Therapy in the therapeutic process with my clients, though I borrow from other theories, such as Cognitive Behavioral Theory, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, & Client-Centered Therapy. I work with my clients to help them develop thoughts and behaviors that help them live a more satisfying life. In short, I provide tools for clients to use to help them live a more satisfying life. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
In our first session, I will ask a number of questions about you to put into context your presenting issues. I will validate whatever emotions you are experiencing at the time. I'll work with you to create an open and safe environment where your thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take those steps towards change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. We’ll work together in our sessions to make your goals a reality for you.
