Timothy Weaver , LMSW

Timothy Weaver brings a focused five years of professional experience in mental health, with a background in nonprofit drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs and government-funded community mental health clinical settings. He has led group work in residential facilities on topics such as anger management, opioids, cognitive behavioral therapy, family dynamics, and 12-step programming, among other psychoeducational groups.

He is an LMSW (Licensed Master Social Worker) and describes himself as a psychologist at heart - a perspective that combines social work's emphasis on fair and ethical treatment with psychology's behavioral and psych-analytic orientations. That blend informs his practical, skills-oriented approach to care. He has experience addressing substance use disorders, post-traumatic stress, major depression, bipolar conditions, borderline personality concerns, children’s disorders, and a range of other clinical presentations.

Timothy focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction-related issues, anger, grief, intimacy challenges, eating and sleep difficulties, ADHD, and compassion fatigue, as well as supporting career transitions and coping with life changes. His work draws on evidence-based methods while remaining attuned to each person’s lived experience and goals.

Evidence-based approaches for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites clients to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions that reflect personal values. It is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors through structured techniques and skill building - a common choice for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and helping individuals explore their own goals at their own pace, supporting growth in self-esteem, intimacy, and life direction.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Timothy works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts strategies over time so therapy stays relevant and effective. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend these models to match what a client brings to sessions.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into busy schedules and to access care across distances. These options can help maintain continuity of care during life transitions and offer multiple ways to communicate depending on what feels most comfortable for the client.
