A Lasting, Science-Based Approach to Toddler Behavior Management (That Works)
At some point, all new parents will hear the warnings about the next phase of childhood—challenging toddler behavior.
But, such warnings are easy to ignore when we stare into our baby’s innocent eyes.
Then, one day it happens. The grocery store tantrum. Or the meltdown over a broken cookie. Maybe even hitting another child.
It’s alarming, it can feel embarrassing, and it can trigger feelings of parenting failure.
While it’s difficult to understand your child’s needs and behaviors during toddlerhood, your response matters.
And it’s why our founder, Tammy Gold, developed The Therapeutic Parenting Method for parents.
The Therapeutic Parenting Method uses psychology, scientific research, and real-life experience to help you navigate this new stage in your child’s development.
You’re Overwhelmed, Stressed & Frustrated Not Being Able To Understand Why Your Toddler Acts The Way They Do
It’s not uncommon for parents who are entering the toddler years for the first time, or even the fourth time, to feel frustrated and overwhelmed.
Of course, you experience joy and a great sense of pride in watching your little one grow, and those fantastic moments still fill your heart, but something else is there, too.
Worry. Stress. Failure.
You know you’ve done your best to be a good role model for your child, so this sudden change in behavior can cause confusion.
If you’ve found yourself googling “bad toddler behavior,” we want you to know you’re not alone. It’s one of the most commonly searched topics for parents of toddlers.
Inability To Communicate
As a toddler, your child is struggling to find ways to communicate their needs because their speech abilities are still evolving.
This can be very discouraging for your toddler (and for you).
The inability to adequately communicate what they want or need at a particular moment makes toddlers feel frustrated and misunderstood—which can lead to an emotional meltdown.
Your toddler wants to tell you their desires, and they simply can’t.
The Therapeutic Parenting Method will teach you the techniques to effectively communicate with your toddler so you can identify your child’s needs and quickly diffuse a situation that may otherwise escalate.
Meeting Developmental Milestones
Thinking about developmental milestones can be very stressful for parents.
Well-intentioned comments about your child’s speech or size may leave you worrying that your child is falling behind—and that you may have had something to do with it.
If you have concerns about your toddler’s milestones, we are here to help.
The Therapeutic Parenting Method allows parents to thrive because it allows them to understand what they can do emotionally and educationally to help their toddler meet critical developmental milestones.
The “Terrible Twos” And The “Terrible Threes”
It’s easy to lose patience at this stage of your child’s development because verbal communication can be challenging.
Most parents automatically turn to Google for toddler behavior management strategies but quickly find that the internet is riddled with conflicting information and advice from so-called “experts” in parenting.
In reality, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to toddler behavior, so how can you know which approach is best for you and your child?
The Therapeutic Parenting Method doesn’t provide you with a “toddler behavior checklist.”
We know every child is different, and we will help you navigate your child’s unique behaviors.
