About Paul
Paul Weaver is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people navigate relationship pain and emotional distress. He works with individuals and couples to address common struggles like anxiety, depression, intimacy problems, and life changes. He practices in Florida and offers sessions in English, including to international clients.
Paul brings nine years of clinical experience and several years in independent practice to his work. He listens for patterns in relationships and family life that make daily functioning harder.
Background and approach
He pays attention to attachment needs, communication breakdowns, and how past wounds affect current choices. In sessions he aims to create a calm, straightforward space where clients can talk about grief, trauma, addiction, or parenting strain. He draws on client-centered methods to prioritize each person’s goals and values.
He also uses emotion-focused ideas to help people identify and work with strong feelings in the moment. Paul uses practical tools when helpful, including cognitive-behavioral techniques to change distressing thoughts and behaviors. He also brings existential perspectives when clients face questions about meaning, direction, or identity.
These approaches are blended to fit what each person needs rather than following a strict formula. People who choose him often want clear conversation, steady support, and help finding concrete steps forward. He helps clients make changes in relationships, cope with loss, and manage stress so daily life becomes more manageable.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches fit into online sessions
Existential Therapy helps people who are facing big life questions about meaning, direction, and identity. It invites honest conversations about values, purpose, and what matters most when life feels uncertain.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns affect trust and closeness now. It can help when communication keeps breaking down or when people feel stuck in fears of abandonment or distance.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience and goals. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflecting and clarifying so people feel heard and can decide what changes matter most to them.
Paul will work with clients to figure out which approach, or mix of approaches, fits best. That process is collaborative: goals, personal history, and preferences guide the plan rather than a single fixed method.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be a quicker option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Messaging and live chat are helpful for ongoing support between sessions or when someone prefers written reflection. These formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and for people in different locations.
