About Randee
Randee Olive is a licensed social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She brings 19 years of clinical experience and aims to make therapy feel practical and reachable for everyday life.
She focuses on thoughts and everyday habits that shape mood and behavior. Sessions often involve learning new ways to notice unhelpful thinking and trying small changes that add up over time. Randee uses straightforward, people-focused methods rather than jargon-heavy explanations.
Her background includes work with trauma and abuse recovery, grief, intimate relationship struggles, and parenting strain. She also supports those dealing with sleep and eating concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, and career or life transitions. The work sometimes includes addressing attachment or abandonment issues that affect current relationships.
Randee blends several therapy approaches to match what each person needs. That can mean practical cognitive tools to shift thinking, emotion-focused work to repair connection, or acceptance-based practices to tolerate hard feelings while still moving toward values. She describes therapy as a collaboration where goals are set together.
Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental presence and a focus on usable skills. Randee aims to help people build routines that support better sleep, steadier moods, clearer communication, and improved day-to-day functioning. She practices in Kansas and meets people in ways arranged through the service.

How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then taking actions that match a person’s values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by shifting how someone relates to difficult internal experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and habit change. Attachment-Based work explores how early relationships shape patterns in current relationships and can help with intimacy, abandonment, and communication struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first, adjusting based on how those strategies feel and what progress is made. Clients help set goals and test out tools in living situations between sessions.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins that focus on skill practice or brief problem-solving. Some people prefer remote meetings when a quieter setting or a shorter, focused session helps them manage time or energy. Licensed professionals can tailor sessions to fit daily life while working toward clearer thinking and steadier habits.
