Prof. Randolph (Randy) Beasley , LMFT

Prof. Randolph (Randy) Beasley, LMFT, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California who brings five years of clinical experience across community clinics, substance use treatment facilities, a state hospital, and correctional settings. He integrates a background in ministry and education with formal clinical training to support individuals, couples, and families facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, addiction, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting and family challenges, and changes in career or life circumstances.

Beasley earned a Bachelor of Science in Business from Biola University, a Master of Theology from Liberty University, and a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Touro University, and he pursued doctoral studies in theology before focusing on clinical practice. Earlier roles as a pastor and Christian camp director shaped his skills in curriculum design and teaching, and those experiences inform his collaborative, goal-oriented approach to care.

He has completed training in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, the Gottman Method, and managing adaptive practices, and he is a certified Mandt trainer in crisis intervention as well as a Strength Deployment Inventory facilitator. His work is client-centered and pragmatic, drawing on solution-focused strategies, cognitive behavioral techniques, and existential perspectives to increase awareness and develop practical steps that change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Prof. Randolph (Randy) Beasley draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and the Gottman Method in online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship and helps clients explore their values and goals while building self-understanding and resilience. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and patterns that maintain distress. The Gottman Method offers structured tools for couples to improve communication, resolve conflict, and strengthen relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process - Beasley works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and he adapts methods over time to fit changing needs. This collaborative stance helps tailor care to individual concerns and relationship dynamics.

Online therapy with Prof. Beasley is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for schedules, geography, and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, attend sessions from different locations, and integrate therapeutic work into a busy life while staying connected with a licensed professional.
