About John
John Weber is an LPC with 12 years of experience helping people facing addiction, relationship stress, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and depression. He focuses on practical steps people can take right away. He speaks plainly and meets people where they are in life.
John draws on straightforward, problem-focused methods in sessions. He helps people break cycles of addiction and manage impulses. He also supports those dealing with codependency, fatherhood issues, guilt, shame, and the isolation that can come with recovery.
Sessions emphasize skills you can use between meetings. John uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and change behavior. He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, achievable goals and build momentum toward them.
His background includes work in residential care and outpatient treatment centers, where he built experience with substance use and process addictions. That work shapes a practical, down-to-earth approach in the therapy room.
John believes people bring useful strengths to therapy and treats clients as partners in the work. He encourages small, concrete changes and checks progress regularly. If you want support sorting priorities, reducing substance use, or rebuilding confidence, he can help map a clear path forward.
How John’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
John commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a method that helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is often used for depression, anxiety, impulse control, and problems tied to substance use.He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which concentrates on clear, short-term goals and small changes you can make right away. This approach is useful when someone wants concrete steps and quick progress toward specific issues like cravings, routines, or motivation.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to decide whether CBT, solution-focused work, or a mix fits best. That choice depends on the client's needs, goals, and what feels most workable in day-to-day life.
