About Randye

Randye Brittain is a Maryland-licensed clinician who brings two decades of practice to conversations about stress, anxiety, relationships, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and works with people facing depression, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, career questions, and intimacy concerns. Her style is warm and interactive and aimed at making difficult topics easier to talk about.

Randye focuses on practical steps alongside deeper reflection. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions grounded in the person’s own goals. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at patterns that repeat over time. Solution-Focused techniques help create short-term goals and quick progress.

Her caseload has included people coping with adoption and foster care matters, blended family issues, custody concerns, immigration-related stress, and family of origin conflict. She also supports people dealing with sleep trouble, seasonal mood shifts, phobias, isolation, and questions about sexuality or life purpose.

Randye combines clinically informed methods with mindfulness, relaxation, and occasional tapping when it fits a person’s needs. She avoids labels and works to treat each person with respect and sensitivity. Sessions are collaborative - she and the client set goals together and adjust the plan as progress is made.

To begin, a short intake and scheduling process is used so sessions can align with the person’s schedule and goals. Randye presents a calm, practical approach made for people wanting steady, understandable help.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities and uses empathic listening to guide sessions. It helps people clarify their goals and feel heard while they work through stressful or confusing issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps test small behavior changes. It can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems, low mood, and patterns that keep someone stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adapt methods as needed. That means sessions can shift emphasis from skill-building to deeper reflection, depending on what helps most.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions can fit more easily into busy days, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Others choose formats that let them use video for face-to-face conversation or phone for a lower-bandwidth option. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your schedule and needs.
