About Randall

Randall Cripe is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, career questions, and coping with life changes. He leans toward a person-centered style and aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can talk through hard experiences and sort out next steps.

Randall emphasizes a relational approach. He believes people already hold many answers and that therapy is a guided process of discovery. Sessions tend to focus on what matters most to the client and on practical steps that can be tried between meetings.

His background includes 18 years of professional counseling experience and longer work in human services. That experience shapes a straightforward, supportive manner designed to help people regain footing after loss, trauma, or major transitions. He also brings attention to career and vocational exploration when those questions arise.

Randall works with concerns linked to attachment and family of origin, abandonment, blended family challenges, and communication problems. He also addresses issues such as body image, caregiver stress, codependency, eating and food-related struggles, and coping with disasters or serious illness.

People who meet with him can expect a collaborative process that respects their values and goals. He often draws on narrative and solution-focused tools alongside trauma-informed work to help people reframe difficult stories and build small, achievable changes.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Randall often uses Client-Centered Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy when supporting people through relationship struggles, grief, and life changes. Client-Centered Therapy centers conversations on the person's experience and priorities, helping them name what matters and move at their own pace. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to concrete goals and small steps, which can help when someone wants quick, practical changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Randall will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as priorities shift or new challenges emerge.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow people to check in from different locations. Some formats are better for shorter check-ins while others support longer, deeper sessions; the therapist and client can decide together what works best.
