About Weston
Dr. Weston Crafton helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. He also supports those facing trauma, intimacy challenges, addiction, anger, and major life changes.
Dr. Crafton is a Tennessee-licensed marriage and family therapist and brings eight years of practice to each session. His style is direct and solution-focused.
He aims to start working toward change from the first visit rather than spending many sessions only on problem description.
Background and approach
Sessions center on clear conversation and practical steps that a person can try between meetings. Dr. Crafton uses attachment-based ideas alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches.
That means he pays attention to patterns in relationships and how those patterns affect feelings and behavior, while also tailoring work to each person's needs. He draws on emotion-focused techniques when relationships and closeness are part of the concern. People who see him often want concrete tools to manage feelings, improve communication, and rebuild trust after hurt.
He works with issues such as abandonment worries, codependency, body image, blended family challenges, chronic illness stress, and kink and alternative sexual culture concerns. Sessions are offered in English from Tennessee and can be scheduled via video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location and therapist availability.

Online support
Attachment and evidence-based approaches for online care
Dr. Crafton often blends attachment-based work with client-centered and cognitive behavioral methods. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns shape emotions and behavior, which can help with intimacy, trust, and abandonment worries. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and tailoring the process to the individual's needs, creating space for people to set their own goals and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s style and shift the plan as needed based on progress and feedback.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful when visual cues and interaction matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text allow shorter check-ins, ongoing skill practice, and flexibility for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to schedule consistent work and try different ways of engaging with therapy.
