Biography

Paul Weaver, MS, LCMHCS, LCAS, CCS With a Master’s in Professional Counseling from Georgia State University, Paul has worked extensively with Emerging Adults in both hospital and outpatient settings, largely focusing on the client with co-occurring substance use and psychiatric disorders. Being deeply influenced by the work of Carl Rogers, Viktor Frankl, and Carl Jung, Paul tends to focus on themes of autonomy and power, identity formation, and meaning and purpose in his work with clients. Paul is also trained in EMDR and provides clinical supervision and training through the North Carolina Board of Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselors and the North Carolina Addictions Specialist Professional Practice Board.

Paul and his wife’s passion for the outdoors and for sustainability drew them to the Asheville area, where Paul serves as the Clinical Director at Red Oak Recovery. Working at Red Oak enables Paul to continue to focus on his work with Emerging Adults and explore his interests in Eco and Adventure Therapy. When not working, Paul, his wife, and their two young children spend much of their time camping, hiking, and enjoying the serenity of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
