About Randall

Randall Weeks is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 25 years of experience. He focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside issues like stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship struggles. He also supports people facing trauma, LGBTQ concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Randall offers steady, respectful help for practical problems and painful moments. He uses straightforward talk and listening to help people sort out what matters to them.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to clarify goals, build coping skills, and strengthen communication. He honors each person’s values while also offering honest feedback when needed. Randall draws on several therapy approaches to match each person's needs.

He blends attachment-based ideas with client-centered care, cognitive behavioral techniques, existential perspectives, and mindfulness practices. That mix helps with mood problems, relationship patterns, parenting stress, and questions about meaning. Across his work he emphasizes collaboration and real-world change.

He focuses on small, doable steps clients can try between meetings. Over time those steps add up to clearer choices and steadier relationships. Randall works with people who want practical guidance and a thoughtful listener.

He aims to make therapy understandable and useful for daily life, not just for talking about feelings.

Therapeutic approaches blended for online family support

Attachment-Based Therapy views patterns of closeness and trust in relationships, helping people see how early bonds affect current family interactions and parenting. It can be useful when attachment issues, abandonment, or family-of-origin problems are at the center of stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting the person where they are, offering acceptance and reflection so clients can name their own goals and solutions. This approach supports people who need a steady, empathic space to explore feelings and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions together and uses practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Randall will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts techniques over time and combines approaches when that better serves the client’s situation.

Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats allow scheduling that fits busy family life, quick check-ins between sessions, and continued support when in-person meetings are difficult. They offer flexibility so therapy can be folded into everyday routines while still focusing on meaningful change.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
