The 4C Framework™

A system of safety for sustainable change—designed to support recovery, reintegration, and resilience.

What are the 4C's?

The 4C Framework™ is a trauma-informed, inclusive model that helps individuals (re)create systems of safety wherever they are. Whether you're navigating recovery, burnout, or a major life transition, the 4Cs—Compassion, Connection, Community, and Consistency—offer a structured path to healing and growth.
Each “C” represents a core human need and an antidote to a core emotional wound:

COMPASSION

antidote to shame, blame, and judgment

COMMUNITY

antidote to feeling alone and not good enough

CONNECTION

antidote to feeling lost and misunderstood

CONSISTENCY

antidote to neglect and chaos

How It Works

Each of the 4Cs strategically build on one another to create a structured, accessible, individualized system that empowers users to consistently address and maintain core needs; not just put a band-aid on, but heal their wounds.

being kinder to yourself; recognizing your worth
