Every adoptive parent should be here Every adoptive parent should be here! Clearly this is a place where people understand me and my children, they know what we’re walking through, and they have so much wisdom and love to share. Before we joined, we were stressed and having daily battles. Now we understand where our kids are coming from and we have the skills to help them through it rather than battling against them. And attachment has grown so much in the process!

From overwhelm to peace 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.

Our family was blessed to be introduced… 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.

The Attach Place The Attach Place, along with the Love Matters Parenting Society, has saved our family from imploding. When no other program worked, we found desperately needed support (after many years of searching) at The Attach Place. With lots of guidance, we have learned how to navigate the ups and downs of raising children from difficult beginnings in a loving and therapeutic way. The community support that has been built here is priceless! We have used The Attach Place for neurofeedback, parent coaching, mindfulness, and theraplay...all wonderful experiences. Our family is healing and thriving. We have been with The Attach Place since 2018.

Thanks to Neurofeedback Solutions.. and Ms. Ce Eshelman 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.
