About Paul
Paul Weaver is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who helps people who are struggling with relationship and emotional pain. He works with individuals and couples to address worries about connection, intimacy, and everyday distress. Paul writes simply and listens closely to what matters to each person.
He draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at patterns in relationships and how emotions drive interaction. He also uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand how early bonds affect current connections.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered approaches round out his toolkit when people need practical steps or a steady, empathic presence. Paul has nine years of clinical experience and several years in independent practice. That background includes work with grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, anxiety, depression, and the strain of life changes.
He also supports people dealing with sexual and intimacy questions, body image, and issues related to kink and alternative sex culture. Common concerns he helps with include abandonment and attachment issues, blended family and fatherhood questions, communication and commitment struggles, codependency, and coping after separation. He is familiar with first responder stress and compassion fatigue as well.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps alongside emotional work. Paul aims to create a calm space where needs are heard, patterns are noticed, and people can try different ways of relating. He encourages clients to decide the pace and direction of therapy.

Online support
How emotional and attachment work translates online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on the role of emotions in relationships and helps people identify, name, and shift unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for couples and individuals who want to change how they respond to hurt, fear, or disconnection. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early bond patterns and how they show up now, which helps people understand why they react the way they do in close relationships and work toward more stable connection. Paul approaches these models collaboratively. He will talk with clients about goals and try different ways of working until a good fit emerges. Deciding which approach to use is a shared process based on a person’s needs, preferences, and the issues they bring. Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and comforts. Video is good for deeper emotional work when seeing faces matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people send short updates or keep momentum between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and help people maintain continuity of care across time zones and life demands.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
