About Steven

Steven Weber is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 18 years of experience. He draws on a range of therapeutic perspectives to address stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, grief, addiction, career issues, and life transitions.

Background and approach

His work also encompasses focused areas such as caregiving stress, aging and geriatric concerns, codependency, infidelity, communication and commitment problems, and questions of life purpose. He blends client-centered listening with structured methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when appropriate, and incorporates emotionally-focused and depth-oriented work informed by existential and Jungian ideas.

That variety allows him to tailor sessions to the client’s needs, using interpretive dreamwork and other tools when they fit the therapeutic goals. Steven emphasizes collaboration and curiosity, inviting clients to explore difficult emotions and patterns while supporting practical coping strategies and personal insight.

In practice he aims to create a respectful space for gradual change, whether addressing acute life stressors or longer-standing patterns. Sessions are offered in English and designed to integrate both moment-to-moment emotional work and concrete skills for managing daily challenges.

Therapeutic Approaches and How They Translate Online

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, helping clients feel heard while they explore personal challenges and build self-understanding. This approach supports work on issues like grief, life purpose, and self-esteem by centering the client’s experience and pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured ways to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress management, and coping with life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets relational and attachment patterns, making it a helpful option for intimacy and communication concerns.

Determining the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Steven works collaboratively with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and may combine elements from different methods so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can increase scheduling flexibility and make it easier to maintain continuity during busy or transitional periods. These formats allow for ongoing work on practical skills, emotional processing, and relationship patterns from wherever the client is located in California.
