About John
John Weber is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with 12 years of clinical experience. He focuses on practical help for people facing addictions, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, career challenges, and depression. He works in an approachable, direct way and aims to make the first steps feel manageable.
He often supports people dealing with codependency and drug or alcohol addiction, including loved ones of someone in active addiction.
Background and approach
He also helps with process addictions such as gambling or problematic pornography use, and with smoking or vaping cessation. Issues like guilt, shame, impulsivity, isolation, and questions about life purpose or midlife changes are part of his work. John uses practical, solution-focused methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques.
Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and small, achievable steps clients can try between meetings. He encourages clients to build on existing strengths and to set clear, realistic goals for change. His background includes work in residential care and outpatient treatment settings, which informs a straightforward approach to recovery and day-to-day coping.
He treats fathers navigating parenting challenges and men facing role or identity questions with direct, respectful conversation. John offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. He provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, and works with a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How John uses CBT and Solution-Focused methods online
John works with two practical approaches that translate well to online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for depression, anxiety, social fears, and habits tied to addiction by teaching new ways of thinking and small behavior experiments.Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes quick, doable steps and what is already working. Sessions often map a short plan of actions and focus on measurable progress, which can help when someone wants focused help with a specific problem like quitting smoking or improving a relationship.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. John will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs, then try methods that fit best. He adjusts the plan as progress is made and uses feedback from each session to shape what comes next.
Online therapy with him uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexible access. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging offer quick touch points and between-session support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or travel schedules.
