Testimonials

‘I had the pleasure of working with Alice for a year, and I couldn’t have felt more supported. She never criticised me, only spent time building me up and at every difficult turn she was there. She spent months finding new ways to show me what attachment actually meant with my child and for that I thank her’.

Parent

‘I was really surprised by how helpful I found this work for me and my daughter. Alice really listened to me and helped me to make the changes that I needed to. I think all social workers should try to use this method more within their work.’

Parent

‘When I was first referred to Dr Loving I was feeling anxious and thought, ‘it’s just another professional that is going to be judging me on how to parent my children’. However, I was pleasantly surprised, Alice is a wonderful lady, who is also a mother and understands how difficult parenthood can be. I was nervous to do the videos, in case I said or did the wrong things, but there was never any judgement from her. I can say with all honesty that working with Dr Loving has been wonderful. She has given me so much insight and techniques that were so simple and easy to do in everyday life. I am incredibly grateful for the help I got, and really recommend this work for parents.’

Parent

‘I commissioned Alice to do some work with a mother in regards to her empathy/ mentalisation of her daughter. Alice was responsive, professional and experienced throughout. The family feedback was very positive, Alice built a good relationship with them, as well as with the SW and manager.  Alice has the knowledge and skill in delivering the intervention and support necessary to affect real change. Due in part to the work Alice undertook with the family, we were able to prevent the child from coming into care.’

Social Work Manager

‘Feedback from the family was really positive, Alice’s contribution to this case prevented the need to remove this child, so thanks so much for such a great and effective delivery’.

Social Worker

‘Nothing short of life changing. Before I found it difficult to be around my son, I found it hard to look at him never mind play and be the parent he needed me to be. Our relationship had completely broken down. I could not see a way out of where we were. Then Alice came along and changed our life, the real life Mary Poppins.  My relationship with my son is just incredible now, never thought I would be able to have that with him after everything’.
