Weaver's work broadly focuses on the inter-relationships among stressful life events, particularly interpersonal violence, and physical and mental health sequelae. This research frequently draws from interdisciplinary research and forges collaborations with healthcare professionals. Weaver's research lens is trauma informed, and she is particularly interested in studying posttraumatic stress disorder, body image disturbance, and depression as mental health outcomes.
