Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Orem, UT

Hello, I'm Randy, i'm an expert in substance use disorders as well as the process addictions. I'm a certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT). I have worked in mental health for 42 years. I treat depression and anxiety. I typically treat families, couples and families to help them heal. I'm also an educator on several mental heath topics and diagnoses.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist serving clients across California, I offer a warm, down-to-earth space where you can show up fully as yourself. I especially enjoy working with men and the unique challenges they may carry, whether that means navigating relationships, stress, identity, anger, or simply feeling stuck. I’m also very comfortable working with people who have personality disorders, and I bring patience, honesty, and compassion to that work.

I am a Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CMHC) and Advanced Substance Use Disorder Counselor (ASUDC) with 18 years of experience in the substance use field. I work with individuals navigating addiction, trauma, anxiety, and life transitions. My focus is helping clients build insight, develop practical tools, and create meaningful change in their lives.

I'm passionate about how therapy has changed my life, and I hope it can do the same for you. My approach is person-centered and collaborative to create a safe space where you can express your thoughts and feelings free of judgment. Life is difficult at times, and change can feel overwhelming. I look forward to walking with you on this journey.

Hi! I am a licensed clinical social worker who has been practicing for 8 years. I specialize in working with mountain athletes and folks who work and play outside. My areas of expertise include anxiety, disordered eating, grief, and trauma.

I have recently become licensed as an LCSW, however, I have over 20+ years in SUD and addictive behaviors as a person in long term recovery. I have worked in the treatment/behavioral health industry for over 15 years. I have been extensively immersed in DBT while working at my previous employer and have worked with those with dual diagnoses (SUD/mental health). I have been trained in all of the therapeutic approaches in my profile while working as a CSW prior to gaining full licensure.

You're the one people call when things fall apart. You're good at it — steady, competent, the person who knows what to do. And somewhere along the way you stopped having anywhere to put your own stuff.

So you can run the meeting, hold the crisis, answer the phone at 2 a.m. — and still not be able to make yourself open the mail. Competence and collapse live together far more often than anyone admits out loud.

I work with adults carrying that particular load: substance use and recovery, emotions that arrive at full volume with no dimmer switch, thoughts of self-harm or not wanting to be here, and the specific erosion that comes from caring for other people for a living. Helpers, clinicians, parents, first responders — people whose exhaustion doesn't have an obvious place to go. I work with teenagers too, often the ones in families like these.

My style is direct, warm, and collaborative. I'm not going to nod quietly for fifty minutes. We'll find what's actually driving things, build skills you can use on a Tuesday afternoon when it counts, and I'll tell you honestly what I'm seeing. You set the pace. I'll bring the structure.

First and foremost, I enjoy meeting people, getting to know the way they think, making people comfortable, and then seeing how I can help or support. I enjoy seeing people grow through their challenges and find progress in their goals. I've spent much of my career working in psychiatric hospitals managing crisis, doing family and adolescent counseling, and have built several addiction counseling programs. I and am currently working as the Clinical Director for an addiction medical clinic, but looking at building up my private practice for more independence. I'm always up to learning something new as I meet new people, and am looking forward to seeing how I can help.
