About Randall
Randall Kitchen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. He brings 25 years of experience and focuses on practical, person-focused care. He emphasizes building on strengths and helping clients take responsibility for change.
Randall prefers to treat each person as a whole - addressing mind, emotions, and if the client wishes, spiritual concerns. He does not center treatment on labels or diagnosis. Instead he partners with people to set concrete goals and work steadily toward them.
Background and approach
Much of his work has involved addiction-related concerns, including drug and alcohol problems, and he has provided individual, group, and family therapy related to those issues. He also helps with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, sleep and eating issues, and parenting concerns. His approach draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful patterns.
He also uses emotionally-focused methods and mindfulness skills to strengthen relationships and manage strong feelings. Motivational interviewing is part of his toolbox when people need help finding the drive to change. Randall stresses clear, practical steps in sessions.
Conversations focus on what a person can do differently between meetings. Over time clients build skills for coping, communication, and healthier daily routines. He practices in Texas and delivers services in English.
People can expect straightforward, goal-oriented sessions that aim to increase functioning and well-being rather than focus on diagnostic labels.

Therapeutic methods and online care that fit your life
Client-centered work focuses on listening and creating a respectful space where the client's priorities guide the work. It helps people who need a collaborative, nonjudgmental partner to clarify goals and make changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches clear strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and shift strong emotional patterns that get in the way of connection and wellbeing.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match each person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative effort - the therapist adjusts methods based on what helps the client make steady progress.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are useful for richer conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, coaching-style support, or to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, school, or parenting demands.
