Background

Dr. Timothy Weber

Timothy Weber, Ph.D. is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in his 28th year of practice.  He received his doctorate from Fuller Graduate School of Psychology in Pasadena, California in 1981 (APA Approved Clinical Program).  After a postdoctoral internship in marriage and family therapy at the Harlem Valley Psychiatric Center in New York            (1980-1981), Dr. Weber was awarded the Wilson Family Therapy Fellowship at the University of Rochester Medical School (1981-1983) working in both Psychiatry and Family Medicine.  Dr. Weber practiced in Colorado Springs from 1983-1990 and moved to Seattle in 1990.  He is a Licensed Psychologist in Washington State, Colorado, and New York and an Approved Supervisor with The American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT).

Dr. Weber is Senior Faculty and Director of the Counseling Program (Master's Degree) at The Leadership Institute of Seattle, affiliated with Bastyr University in Kenmore, Washington.  He has a private practice in Bellevue, working with individuals, couples, and families (please see the "Practice" link above for further information).  Concerns individuals typically bring into therapy include depression, anxiety, relationship concerns and conflicts, work stress, addictions, parent-child conflicts, health concerns, loss, grief, and spiritual or life meaning issues.  The focus of therapy is to collaborate in generating new ideas and solutions in response to life's distress and to support growth toward wholeness and new possibilities.

He also teaches and trains psychotherapists and provides coaching and leadership training for business professionals and organizations, including the use of phone consultations.  Dr. Weber also specializes in working with the family of origin, has coauthored a book on family of origin therapy, conducts two workshops each year on the theory and practice of family of origin therapy, and consults with families around the United States and Canada.

Dr. Weber has co-authored two books on the practice of psychotherapy and consulting:  Systems Consultation:  A New Perspective for Family Therapy (1986, with Wynne and McDaniel) and Coming Home Again:  A Family of Origin Consultation (2003, with Framo and Levine).  Most recently he authored Interrupting Sudden Death (2006), published in the APA journal Family, Systems, and Health.  Currently he is coauthoring a forthcoming book chapter, Intensive Family of Origin Consultation which will be published in 2008. He also has written chapters in two books, Integrating Family Therapy (1996) and Casebook for Integrating Family Therapy:  An Ecosystemic Approach (2001) in addition to numerous articles in professional journals focusing on psychotherapy, the training of psychotherapists, couple and family therapy, spirituality, health care, and integrity.

Besides practicing for over 28 years, Dr. Weber's training has been shaped over 32 years of marriage and parenting three adult children--ages 27, 24, and 20.  In addition to the extensive academic and clinical training of psychologists, their development is crafted over the many years of rich conversations with their clients who teach them and through the many experiences of their own lifetime beginning in their own families of origin.  Psychologists are always learning along with their clients and in that collaboration, conversations in counseling become effective and imaginative.
