About Paul
Paul Weaver is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with nine years of clinical experience. He works with people who are dealing with relationship and family strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. Paul also helps with issues like addiction, grief, parenting stresses, and work-related strain for first responders.
He uses a straightforward, client-centered way of working. Sessions focus on what is happening now in relationships and feelings, and on practical steps to reduce distress. He draws on emotionally focused methods to notice patterns in how people relate and to repair connection when it has been damaged.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of his approach when targeting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Paul combines that with attachment-based ideas to look at early relationship patterns that affect current partnerships. The work often pairs feeling-focused conversation with concrete behavior changes to test new ways of responding.
He regularly addresses practical concerns such as communication problems, commitment and control issues, blended family dynamics, and fatherhood questions. He also supports people exploring sexuality, kink, and alternative sex cultures without judgment. Sessions may include discussing boundaries, rebuilding trust, and setting short-term goals.
Paul has practiced in private settings and brings a pragmatic tone to therapy. He encourages small experiments between sessions so people can see if new approaches help. International clients may be accepted and sessions are conducted in English.
How Paul’s approaches translate to online work
Paul combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, attachment-based work, and client-centered methods in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. Attachment-based work looks at patterns of relating formed early in life and how those patterns affect current relationships and intimacy. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and building a working relationship so clients can explore feelings and make their own changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paul will review your concerns and goals with you and help decide which methods to emphasize. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made or new issues arise.
