About RWD Wellness

My name is Randall Dunkle. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) currently licensed in DC and MD. I began my career in Integrated Dual Diagnosis (substance abuse combined with mental illness) and Assertive Community Treatment (ACT). After those rather intense yet very rewarding years I transitioned to private practice. I have been providing mental health services for over 9 years.

My theoretical orientation is rooted in CBT. However, I draw from many modalities to ensure that my services are tailored to each client.

After finding great success with energy psychology during my own therapy journey, I realized my talents and interests aligned well with many of the techniques used in those services. I decided to learn techniques associated with energy psychology and have incorporated them into my practice as well.

I am now accepting Carefirst insurance.

Your story matters. Your wellbeing matters. And your journey starts here.

  • CBT is a proven, goal-oriented approach to mental health that helps to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. By focusing on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions, CBT empowers the individual to develop healthier coping strategies and create lasting positive change.

    CBT is effective for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, and more. It’s a practical, collaborative process that equips you with tools to overcome challenges and take control over emotional well-being.

  • Logosynthesis is a groundbreaking, guided technique that uses the power of language to help you reclaim your energy, resolve emotional pain, and unlock your true potential.

    At its core, Logosynthesis works by identifying the thoughts, memories, or beliefs that create distress. Through a series of carefully crafted sentences, you’re guided to neutralize the energy tied to these triggers. This gentle yet profound process restores balance, frees stuck energy, and promotes deep emotional healing.

    Whether facing stress, anxiety, trauma, or inner conflict, Logosynthesis provides a simple yet effective way for clients to dissolve the root cause of the discomfort. It can be a life-changing approach to emotional and spiritual growth that empowers individuals to live with greater clarity, peace, and purpose.

  • EFT combines the principles of traditional acupressure with modern psychology, using gentle tapping on specific energy meridian points on the body while focusing on emotional challenges or limiting beliefs. This process helps to clear emotional blockages and restore harmony in mind and body.

    Whether seeking relief from past trauma, struggling with self-doubt, or looking to boost emotional resilience, EFT is a gentle, non-invasive tool that empowers individuals to take control of emotional well-being. It's easy to learn, highly effective, and can create lasting results.

  • Are you working toward independent licensure as a therapist and looking for the right supervisor to guide you? Clinical supervision is a vital step in your professional journey, providing the support, structure, and expertise you need to successfully accrue hours and meet licensing requirements.

    As your supervisor, I’ll work with you to ensure you gain the knowledge, skills, and confidence required for independent practice. We’ll explore case consultations, ethical decision-making, and professional challenges in a supportive and collaborative environment tailored to your goals.

    Supervision isn’t just about logging hours—it’s about building a strong foundation for your career. Together, we’ll focus on your growth, helping you navigate complex cases, develop best practices, and step into your role as a skilled, independent clinician.
