Randall Allen is a licensed therapist based in New Mexico who brings a practical and supportive approach to counseling. He earned a Bachelor of Education from Northern Arizona University in 1987 and completed a Master of Counseling with High Distinction at Colorado Christian University in 2016.
He is licensed in Arizona as a professional licensed counselor and in New Mexico as a licensed mental health counselor, and he has 8 years of professional experience. Randall works with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, anger management, depression, addictions, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.
Randall most often draws on Choice Theory and Reality Therapy in his work, while also integrating techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and client-centered therapy as needed. He seeks to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored, and at times he will share relevant personal experiences when he believes it will help move the process forward.
He partners with clients to develop ways of thinking and behaving that support a more satisfying life. Randall recognizes that taking the first step toward change takes courage, and he aims to support and empower clients throughout that journey. His schedule is subject to change because he works part-time for BetterHelp and also serves as a high school sports official. If anyone has questions about working with him, they are encouraged to contact BetterHelp.
Many people wonder whether online therapy truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the format that fits their needs, whether that is a video call, a phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to fit therapeutic work into a busy schedule.
All therapists providing online care are licensed professionals, and if the therapeutic fit is not right, it is possible to switch to a different provider. For many people facing everyday mental health challenges, online therapy offers a practical and effective option for receiving professional support.
