What About Bob
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 48 years experience, primarily in community mental health working with couples and families as a clinician, supervisor and clinical director. My work is grounded in cognitive-behavioral therapy and systems theory with a heavy emphasis on changing dysfunctional patterns and behaviors in everyday life. My style is highly interactive, often humorous, and tends to be short-term — once we figure out what you need to do to better run your life, it's about doing it and then fine-tuning.
I'm also a writer. I've published 13 books, some with several editions. Many have been used in graduate programs not only in the US but in over 15 countries worldwide; several have been translated into Spanish, Chinese, Portuguese and Persian:
In addition to my books, I've also published over 300 magazine and journal articles, contributed several book chapters including the Encyclopedia of Couple & Family Therapy and Favorite Counseling Techniques: 55 Masters Share Their Secrets which graciously cited me among the top 100 therapists in the country. I also write a regular online column for Psychology Today entitled Fixing Families www.psychologytoday.com/blog/fixing-families, which has over 500 articles and has received over 20 million views, as well as my serving as a contributing expert for several relationship websites. Along the way I've received 3 national writing awards for Best Consumer Health Writing.
I also love to teach. I have provided both online and in-person trainings to clinicians nationally and internationally on couple therapy, family therapy, brief therapy, and clinical supervision.
I'm a graduate of Rutgers University and the University of South Carolina, and have served as adjunct professor at several universities.
I'm currently in private practice in Charlottesville, Virginia with Lewis Weber & Associates: weberpsychotherapy.com
