Prof. Randolph (Randy) Beasley

He brings five years of experience as an LMFT and a background that includes pastoral work and program leadership. Randy focuses on practical steps people can use to feel better and change patterns that cause harm.

Randy combines goal-focused work with a client-centered stance. He helps people name clear goals and then tries out small, concrete changes.

He often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thinking, and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship dynamics are central. Before becoming a therapist he studied business and theology and worked as a pastor and camp director.

He later completed a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy. That mix of roles shaped his straightforward, values-aware approach to care.

Randy has worked in community clinics, substance use treatment settings, a state hospital, and jails. That experience informs how he supports people facing addiction, trauma, and life disruptions.

He also brings experience with caregiver stress, blended family issues, and fatherhood concerns. In sessions he favors short-term goal work alongside deeper reflection.

People can expect a practical plan, regular check-ins on progress, and tools for managing anxiety, depression, mood shifts, and relationship strain. He welcomes people who want steady, action-oriented support while also addressing underlying meaning and values.
