About Cherry
Cherry Weaver is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 22 years of clinical experience. She practices in Utah and works with adults facing issues such as depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, relationship struggles, anger, and parenting concerns.
She has worked in inpatient and outpatient settings, including substance abuse and psychiatric hospitalization programs, as well as private practice. That background shapes a practical approach to everyday problems. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and how to move toward that goal.
Cherry uses several evidence-informed approaches. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and change behavior. She uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. She also uses Client-Centered methods and Motivational Interviewing to support motivation and decision-making.
Her work covers a broad set of concerns: addictions, grief, intimacy issues, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and coping with life changes. She also addresses communication problems, codependency, domestic violence, and first responder issues when relevant to the person sitting in front of her.
Sessions emphasize clear goals, practical skills, and steady progress. Cherry helps people sort what matters most, practice new responses to stress or anger, and track small changes that add up over time.
How sessions work
How Cherry uses therapeutic approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. The therapist reflects what the person says and supports them in choosing goals and next steps. This approach is useful when someone needs a steady, person-led process to sort out feelings and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It is practical and often involves homework, such as tracking moods or testing new responses to stressful situations. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and anger-related patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for regulating emotions and managing high stress. Skills include distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. These tools can help when anger spikes or when stress leads to repeated conflict.
Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which approach or combination fits their goals and preferences. That conversation usually happens in the first sessions and can change over time as progress is tracked.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list explicit formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people work with a licensed professional from a distance. Ask about format options when scheduling so sessions match timing and practical needs.
