Cherry Weaver

Cherry Weaver is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with more than 22 years in the field. She has worked across inpatient and outpatient settings and in private practice. Cherry focuses on practical change and helps people facing things like anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, relationship strain, and anger. Her approach is flexible and shaped by each person's needs. She uses client-centered work to follow what matters most to the person in the room. She also draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to spot patterns of thought and behavior that get in the way. Dialectical behavior skills are used to build emotion regulation and coping tools. Cherry has experience supporting people dealing with grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, and complications from mood conditions such as bipolar disorder. She also works with those navigating ADHD, codependency, and family of origin problems. First responder issues, domestic violence, and addiction are among other areas she addresses. Sessions tend to focus on clear, doable goals. Cherry often blends brief coaching techniques with therapy when people want both short-term skill building and deeper work. Motivational interviewing helps when making changes related to substance use or other habits. She trained at Amberton University, where she earned a Masters degree in Counseling. Cherry practices in Utah and conducts sessions in English. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How her approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person's lead and building a trusting working relationship. It helps people set their own priorities and move at a pace that feels right. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers specific tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication when feelings run high.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify goals and test which methods fit best. That means approaches can shift over time as needs and goals change.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, shorten travel time, and allow quick check-ins when a shorter session is helpful. It can also let people practice new skills between meetings and bring workplace or home stressors more directly into conversation when relevant.
