About Cherry

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 practices from Utah and draws on long experience in settings such as inpatient substance abuse, psychiatric hospitalization, partial and intensive outpatient programs, and independent practice. Cherry focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship pain, and questions about self esteem.

She takes a practical, down-to-earth approach. Sessions usually center on what a person wants to change and small steps to get there. Cherry uses methods that fit the situation rather than one fixed style. She often blends talk, problem-solving, and skill practice during appointments.

Her work includes addressing trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, and the strains that come from parenting or blended family life. She also supports people facing substance use, anger, and mood concerns such as bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder. Cherry lists ADHD, first responder stress, and isolation or loneliness among other focus areas.

Her clinical approach pulls from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, Imago relationship work, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Those approaches guide the session structure and homework between visits. Cherry aims to help people build coping tools and clearer communication patterns.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy puts the person's goals first and focuses on active listening and collaboration. Online sessions using a client-centered stance are about understanding what matters most to the client and shaping each visit around their priorities.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. In remote work this often means identifying patterns during a session and assigning short, practical exercises to practice between meetings for issues like anxiety, depression, or self esteem concerns.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships. Online DBT-style work can concentrate on specific skill lessons, role play, and brief skills practice to apply in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a client's goals, needs, and preferences, and may blend approaches as those needs change.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling around work and family, shorter check-ins when needed, and the ability to attend from wherever travel or commuting would otherwise be a barrier.
