It is so helpful to get professional feedback and share resources and support with other parents. The supports from this membership has made a bug impact on our family.

The Attach Place and Loves Matters Parenting Society support and therapeutic parenting class has been life changing. I was struggling as a grandparent who has become the guardian of my granddaughter. We lost her mom to drugs and then suicide in 2020. It was devastating for both of us and we spiraled down to a point where I wasn’t sure I would be able to keep caring for her. Just months before I joined my granddaughter who was 9, was in and out of the hospital, on several kinds of medication with no effect, and I was having to call the police because of extreme aggression or threats of harm to self and others. My friend had recently started the Love Matters Parenting Society and shared the link. Desperate for any kind of support I signed up and from the moment of hearing that first video intro song I knew this was something, there was a glimmer of hope. I went all in watching the videos, joining the Facebook group, and then coming to the weekly zoom groups. Things started getting better as I focused on connection before correction and built our relationship back. I have to say that with the amazing guidance, support from the groups and the therapeutic parenting material there is no more extreme aggression, destruction, or hopelessness. We are on our way. Has it been or is it now easy? No. But it’s worth it and it is a more effective and long term solution.

I thought I knew a lot about attachment. This membership 1.) Taught me much more; 2.) Reminds me daily to connect with my children, even when it’s hard; 3.) Provides me with an understanding, knowledgeable group of Facebook friends who have all been where I am. Plus, there’s Ce and Andrea, who sincerely care about every family. The membership helps me become the parent I want to be every day.

Our family was blessed to be introduced to The Attach Place as a means to addressing the mental health issues due to the COVID crisis. Having absolutely no therapeutic resources (in the entire five years since I had adopted my two girls), I jumped at the opportunity. It has been hands down the best decision for our family. I did have previous suggestions from other resources for how to get my kids in line (as if this was the goal), my own experience as a child, and what I saw mirrored from families who do not have children from difficult beginnings. None of those examples worked for us, which left me feeling alone and fearful of the future. Our situation wasn’t getting better, only worse. After some time in Theraplay, and completing work in the Love Matters Parenting Society resources, I have a success story almost weekly. I see change in how we communicate, and I am on way to parenting the way I always hoped I could - with some compassion, patience, and as a model of security and stability that my children crave. I am most thankful for the graciousness of the staff, and the parents in LMP support group. The mottos of #bettertogether and No Blame, No Shame help to create a safe place to learn, heal, and grow as a family.

Ce is amazing. Professional practical and able to be very personal. Even though I'm parent of an adult, the insights and perspective and sense of shared perspective have been very worthwhile. I've learned stuff I would have used decades ago, but I've been able to make it inform my relationship with my now adult child who is now herself a parent. I bring lessons learned about self-regulation, about therapeutic parenting, about being there with love first before you try to do any 'work', So very very valuable.

This program has produced amazing results! Just a few months ago my son, who has Asperger's, suffered from overreacting to various situations and was riddled with anxiety. Thanks to Neurofeedback Solutions he is now able to process information to the degree that he no longer has inappropriate outbursts and his overall demeanor is calmer and more relaxed. We are constantly having people remark at how much he has matured over the last few months. My son and I used to have daily arguments and now we have none. We have the pleasure of conversation without drama. My son and I have noticed what a difference this program has made in our lives and we both couldn't be happier with the results. I highly recommend contacting Ce and utilizing this program for anyone who might be having difficulties with Asperger's and/or anxiety. --S.
