My name is Steve Weiss and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Arizona. As an experienced therapist with years in the field, I am committed to my clients' journey of recovery from whatever is challenging or interfering with their quality of life. My clinical specialties are couples and family therapy, as well as individual counseling for life issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief/loss, stress management, and relationship difficulties. I also work with addiction and personality disorders. My clinical philosophy is to start where my clients are at; I understand that changes are difficult and ultimately a choice. My approach is to empower clients to look at their strengths and challenges, and assist them in deciding what changes they wish to make. I am also comfortable in working with clients whose faith is an important part of their lives. I strive to always be transparent and "clinically humble", and understand that the client is the expert regarding his or her life. Finally, therapy for me starts with the therapeutic relationship which I work to develop with all my clients, so we can develop a supportive, therapeutic, treatment environment.

Better help has been the best therapy at affordable price I have and will continue to recommend

I have recently started working with Stephen Weiss. I can attest to his knowledge and commitment to help his clients grow. He made it clear that that’s what his intentions are. His intentions are to help his clients grow and get them to the point where they no longer need therapy. When he asked me my first set of self-focused questions, I immediately started to adopt new practices. It was as if he knew what to say or ask that would help me start building my foundation. I would recommend his help to anyone who is looking for real change. Fair warning; it does come with the price of reflecting on yourself and facing your own issues, problems, and secrets that you try to mask or hide from the world. That’s what I am learning so far, at least. Thanks Stephen

I have seen two other counselors before Stephen (not on Better Help) and truly I have never had such a positive experience before. My previous counselors were focused on hearing about my feelings, and Stephen has helped me understand them. I have been struggling with depression and anxiety for two years, but I finally feel like I can breathe again. There's a huge change in how I see myself and how I have handled difficult situations. Stephen challenges me but also respects me and never makes me feel invalidated. I am thankful for him and the Better Help platform.

Steve is an amazing therapist because he is real with you. He doesn’t tell you what you want to hear. He works with you in your struggles and calls it as it is, saying what you need to hear even if it’s a tough pill to handle. I appreciate this greatly! He will definitely challenge you for the best! He’s tough and gentle at the same time. He’s extremely helpful.

Great Therapist. Will tell you like it is in order to help you. And we all need that sometimes.
Asks a lot of questions which help you to think more fully about what you are going through.
Uses helpful therapy aids/exercises to give you skills to solve problems on your own and understand yourself better.

Stephen helps me to see where I’m improving and need to improve, and encourages me to allow myself to feel my emotions, rather than live in my head. Thank you!

I am so happy to have a therapist that honestly meets my needs and understands where I'm coming from, especially since we have backgrounds in similar work. He brings a new perspective that I haven't had since starting therapy and I extremely appreciate what he brings to the table every therapy session. I honestly feel like I go through the emotions that I need to in order to process what I've gone through. I start therapy, feeling super heavy and leave it. Feeling optimistic and confident. He provides me the support that I need. Even a 3:00 a.m. went on breaking down in the bathroom.

Seriously the most down to earth, incredible listener and frank, stern, respectful, helpful, pull each part and help in segments. Not sure if that makes sense. I seriously have a better way of dealing with things. Because of Dr. Weiss able to break it down and peel apart each segment so I can comprehend what is happening in my life!! I have been able to bounce things off of him. The down to earth and objective help he has given me will take me to the rest of my most fortunate, awesome life that I have ahead of me.

Stephen Weiss quickly identified my real issues and gave me insight as to my part in it. He also helped me understand why I and others responded the way we did so now I can learn to do things differently. I've talked to other counselors in the past and Stephen is definitely one of the better ones.
