About Paul
Paul Weaver is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with nine years of clinical experience. He works with adults who are dealing with relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Paul also lists work with intimacy issues, addictions, body image, and stress-related problems.
He focuses on helping people reduce conflict and rebuild connection when relationships feel painful or stuck. Sessions often look at attachment patterns and how early family experiences show up now. He pays attention to practical changes people can try between meetings, not just ideas discussed in session.
Paul describes his style as client-centered and informed by emotionally-focused work. That means he listens for the emotions and needs under arguments and for patterns that keep people stuck. He uses cognitive behavioral ideas when helpful to identify unhelpful thoughts and to test new behaviors that change outcomes.
Clients commonly bring concerns about parenting, blended family dynamics, fatherhood issues, and family of origin problems. He also lists experience with kink and alternative sexual cultures, codependency, abandonment and attachment issues, and first responder stress. Paul aims to help people find steadier ways of relating and coping.
He has worked in private practice settings and with people facing life transitions, recovery from trauma, and persistent anxiety or depression. People who want a straightforward, emotion-attentive approach to messy relationship and family problems may find his way of working useful.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how patterns of closeness and distance formed in early relationships affect current behavior. It helps when relationship anxiety, abandonment fears, or repeating family patterns cause distress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so adults can name their needs and make clearer choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting.Finding the right approach is part of working together. Paul will help clients and partners decide which combination of methods fits their goals, personality, and the issues they bring. That decision evolves over a few sessions rather than being fixed at the start.
The original profile does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins during work breaks, or remove travel time. If a client prefers not to be on camera, other conversation styles or shorter meetings can often be arranged. Online work can support steady progress on relationship, parenting, grief, and anxiety concerns while fitting into everyday life.
