About Randall
Dr. Randall Maurer is a Texas licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 35 years of clinical and training experience. He combines decades of counseling work and seminary study to address psychological and spiritual concerns when a client wants that option. He has worked in private practice, agencies, and in-patient psychiatric settings, and has spent much of his career training other therapists.
Maurer focuses on practical change. He helps people identify strengths they already have and turn those into workable steps. Sessions often emphasize clear goals, problem-solving, and motivation to follow through on plans.
His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential ideas, mindfulness practices, hypnotherapy, and relationship methods such as the Gottman approach. He uses solution-focused and strategic techniques to help people create and implement solutions.
He treats stress, anxiety, depression, and problems with relationships and intimacy. Other areas of focus include grief, parenting concerns, addictions, blended family issues, chronic illness and disability, and communication problems. He also works with issues like guilt, forgiveness, commitment concerns, and questions about life purpose.
Clients can expect straightforward sessions that emphasize finding practical steps and building motivation. He does not push religious views on anyone, and he will address spiritual topics only when a client wishes to include them. For parents or individuals dealing with family conflict, he helps people work through communication and role issues in concrete ways.

Approaches used in online sessions and how they help
Dr. Maurer often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thinking patterns that feed anxiety or low mood and to try out practical behavior changes. Existential therapy helps clients face questions about meaning, responsibility, and direction, which can be useful for life purpose concerns and major transitions. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and reducing conflict in relationships through specific exercises and skills. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and then recommend techniques to test and adjust together. Clients and the therapist review what works and change the plan as needed. Confirm the session formats before scheduling because formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone try a first session from wherever works best for them. Practical matters like scheduling, session length, and whether a camera is used are discussed when arranging the first appointment.Sheet 3
