When a young child’s behavior raises concern, how do we know whether it is a passing phase or a sign of something deeper? In Does Time Heal All, the authors challenge the belief that troubling early behaviors will simply resolve with time and instead argue for early identification and treatment when true psychological distress is present, especially while the brain is most adaptable. Through rich case studies and clinical insights, the book explores the complex interplay of genetic, biological, psychological, and cultural factors that shape development, offering a nuanced look at the fine line between intense but typical behavior and symptoms that require therapeutic intervention.
