Weaver Center, in Wayland, MA, evaluates and treats individuals with learning and attention problems, educational and psychological issues. Individualized programs may include neuropsychological testing, educational testing, projective testing, counseling, school advocacy and/or tutoring.
Therapy: Weaver Center clinicians provide therapy for individual adults, adolescents and children, couples, and families in their areas of specialty, which include: self-esteem, self-advocacy, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, anger management, divorce/couples' issues, family dynamics, adoption/blended family issues. Weaver Center, formerly Weaver Clinic, was founded in 1985 to improve the functioning of children and adults with learning and attentional differences. The Center's objectives and direction evolved from Dr. Weaver's personal experiences of living with attentional, learning, organization and self-esteem difficulties. He has assembled a multidisciplinary team of professionals who specialize in the development of effective interventions based on four cornerstones.
We can identify ADHD, reasons for attention and organization problems and offer solutions. Many of our clients have trouble paying attention when a topic is not interesting. Behavioral, social and emotional problems in clients are often a reason to seek our help. We have developed interventions that coordinate services in one place.
Support groups, parent education, and home-based organizational/coaching services are provided by Weaver Center staff, as well as on-going school advocacy at public and private schools, and individually-designed home and school behavior programs.
Dr. Robert A. Weaver, III, Ph.D., and other staff, speak to and conduct workshops for students, parents and professionals, including in-service training, program development and supervision of professionals.
