About Dr. Rand
Judith Rand earned her doctorate in Counseling and Family Psychology,
with a Minor in Special Populations, from Texas Woman's University in 2003.
She is well-versed in providing services to individuals and families across
the life-span.
Dr. Rand has always been an active member of her community and an advocate of
positive social change. In Texas, where her career as a psychologist began, she
conducted her dissertation research on domestic violence. She then served as a member of the
Executive Board of the Lillian Smith Family Violence Foundation, dedicated to changing public
attitudes and policies which condone violent behavior. Currently, she is a member of the Advisory
Council for the Lillian Smith Family Violence Foundation. The website is: www.lilliansmith.org.
Periodically, Dr. Rand appears in the media to address problems associated with anger and violence in
our society. She created the Anger Management course for first-time adolescent offenders of violence
on school campuses in Irving, Texas. Her program is still being used at the Irving Family Advocacy
Center today. In Victoria, Texas, she worked with the Juvenile Justice System in resolving rampant
truancy issues in the public school system. She continues to present seminars on timely family related
topics that provide tools for building healthy families.
During the last few years, she has been working with residents in long-term care facilities and their
families, first in Texas and then in Arizona. In Spring of 2009, she transferred to Arizona for an
excellent opportunity to serve as the consulting psychologist at a long-term care facility in Phoenix.
She counseled with persons typically over the age of 50 with rehabilitative concerns, special issues
related to aging, and/or dementia-related problems using her person-centered approach to
assessment and therapy. In March, 2010, she published an article regarding the application of
state-of-the-art research, theory, and clinical experience to counseling with the elderly in long-term
care facilities. Dr. Rand now dedicates part of her time to providing on-site psychological services to
residents at memory-care, assisted living, and independent living facilities in Mesa and Tempe, Arizona.
In sum, Dr. Rand integrates her education, training and experience toward helping families in her
independent practice in Mesa. Her areas of specialization and interests include anxiety, depression,
bipolar disorder, and Asperger's Syndrome; gender issues, domestic violence, teen dating violence, and
elder abuse; adolescents dealing with trauma, anger, truancy, violence, or problems with parents; marital
and relationship issues, including power dynamics that interfere with healthy relationship functioning;
family of origin influences on current functioning; family estrangement; and geropsychology.
