The Four Pillars

By examining all four pillars of a problem, our approach uncovers solutions that might have otherwise been overlooked.

Biological

Your child’s general health and medical status—basically any information you might get from your pediatrician. This includes issues such as allergies, vision or hearing problems, or more complex diagnoses like ADHD or autism.

Developmental

Your child’s emotional and mental capabilities change as they grow up. Their behavior and patterns can evolve (and regress) from six months old up until young adulthood.

Environmental

Environmental factors include where a child lives, who they live with, number of siblings, income level, event pets. There is no “correct” setting to raise a family, but we strongly believe environment has to be considered when problem solving.

 

Emotional

The mental status of your child can encompass a variety of emotional issues—even ones that may be age appropriate (such as tantrums). This is one of the most difficult elements to get a handle on, but parents usually know their kids better than anyone.

Like E=MC2, the Therapeutic Parenting Method provides parents the formula for solving family challenges. Our equation focuses on each child’s four primary fundamental needs: Biological, Developmental, Environmental, and Emotional.

We believe that to achieve “Therapeutic” parenting, a parent must approach every success and struggle with an understanding of how it affects their child holistically. Some parenting methods and programs focus on one area of a child’s life or use the wrong technique to solve it– which can cause more harm than help. Our one-of-a-kind formula allows logic and order to supersede emotion and chaos, making a profound difference in the bonding and attachment of caregivers and children.

We developed this equation from over 20 years of research and testing by our founder, Tammy Gold, a licensed therapist, certified parenting coach, childcare author, and media expert for Good Morning America, The Today Show, CBS, and Fox News. Finally, parents have a guide they can tangibly follow and reapply to understand their children and ultimately – better communicate with them and advocate for them.
