Timothy Weaver

Timothy Weaver, LMSW, helps people who are dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, and related struggles. He keeps things straightforward and practical so families can find help that fits into busy lives. He aims to make sessions a place to talk through what’s going wrong now and plan doable steps forward.

Timothy has five years of experience in clinical settings across Michigan. He has worked for nonprofit agencies and government-funded community mental health programs. That background includes leading groups in residential facilities on topics such as anger management, opioids, cognitive behavioral skills, family dynamics, and 12-step approaches.

He blends social work values with a psychology-minded interest in behavior and deeper patterns. Timothy describes himself as a licensed master social worker who leans on both social work and psychological ideas when helping people. He uses this mix to focus on fair, practical care and to help clients notice patterns that keep problems going.

Common concerns he addresses include substance use, post-traumatic stress, major depression, bipolar disorder, grief, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD among others. He also supports people with sleep or eating concerns, low self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

Sessions emphasize listening first, then trying evidence-informed tools chosen together. He uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered techniques, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to guide conversation and skills practice.

How his approaches adapt to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and decide what matters most to them. It focuses on small actions that match values, which can help with anger and anxiety. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change those patterns. It is often used for stress, depression, insomnia, and some addiction-related behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to the client’s goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. If something isn’t working, adjustments are made together until a workable plan is found.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and reduce travel time. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed or sessions that don’t require being on camera. Because the exact session formats for this therapist are not listed here, confirm current options before booking so you know what format will be used. Many people find that remote sessions let them practice skills in their daily routines and follow up more consistently with their therapist.
