About Cherry
Cherry Weaver is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 22 years of experience. She practices in Utah and works with people facing anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, relationship strain, and related concerns. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with attention to what each person wants to change.
She previously worked in inpatient substance abuse and psychiatric settings, and in partial and intensive outpatient programs. That background means she is familiar with crisis stabilization and step-down care, as well as outpatient approaches. She also has experience from private practice settings in Texas.
Her approach emphasizes practical strategies. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to notice and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered methods, Motivational Interviewing, Imago relationship ideas, and Mindfulness practices when they fit the issue.
Sessions typically focus on clear goals and skills you can practice between meetings. Therapy may include behavior experiments, communication practice, emotion regulation skills, and motivation work. Cherry will discuss which methods seem most relevant and try different techniques until something helps.
People often come for help with addiction, relationship conflict, grief, parenting stress, anger, ADHD-related struggles, and coping with life changes. She also addresses issues such as codependency, family-of-origin problems, first responder stress, and recovery from domestic violence and disruptive mood concerns.
How her approaches translate to online work
Cherry commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills useful for anger, relationship conflict, and strong emotions.She also uses Client-Centered methods that emphasize listening and working from the client's concerns. Together, these approaches let her mix skill teaching, collaborative planning, and reflective conversation so the client can try concrete changes between sessions.
Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences, try specific techniques, and adjust the plan based on what is helpful. This discussion happens early so sessions stay practical and focused.
The original biography did not list which online session formats are offered. Confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday break, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a quick update is helpful. Cherry will discuss how to structure sessions to match each person's schedule and needs.
