About Randolph
Prof. Randolph (Randy) Beasley is an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with five years of clinical experience. He works with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship problems, addiction, grief, parenting strains, and anger. Randy combines practical focus with clear goals to help people reduce patterns that cause repeated conflict and upset.
He studied business at Biola University and holds a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Touro University. Prior to clinical work he completed a Master of Theology at Liberty University and spent years in pastoral roles and youth program leadership. That background shaped a direct, task-oriented style in sessions.
Randy describes his approach as client-centered and goal-oriented. He uses solution-focused strategies and cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. He and the client set actionable goals and track small changes that change how the client feels over time.
He also incorporates existential ideas to help people face difficult choices and clarify what matters. Elements of dialectical behavior therapy and the Gottman Method appear in his practice when relationship regulation or communication skills are the focus. The work tends to be pragmatic and focused on real-world changes.
People who choose Randy often want straightforward tools and a plan to manage strong feelings, improve communication, or break cycles tied to addiction or relationship strain. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions from California.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding your perspective and building a working relationship. In practice this means sessions start with the client's priorities and the therapist reflects back to clarify what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions link to feelings. Online CBT often uses short exercises, homework, and step-by-step plans to reduce anger, anxiety, or depressive patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes concrete skills for emotion regulation and communication. When anger or relationship escalation is the issue, DBT skills provide practical coping tools and ways to de-escalate conflict.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Randy discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods as needed. He aims to match the techniques to what the client wants to change and how they prefer to work.
