A place to exhale

Bring me what’s keeping you up at night.

You don’t need to have the right words or a perfectly organized story. Bring the worry, the conflict, or the question you keep circling back to. We’ll sort through it together—without judgment.

Maybe you’re wondering…

Am I being too hard—or not firm enough?
How do I help without rescuing?
How do I set boundaries and stay connected?
How do I stop worrying all the time?

Or you’re dealing with…

Disrespect and constant conflict
Screens, gaming, or social media
School struggles or low motivation
A child who has pulled away

What coaching looks like

A calmer path forward—in three simple steps.

01 · YOU SHARE

Tell me what’s happening.

I listen carefully and help you name the real challenge underneath the emotion and overwhelm.

02 · WE SORT

We make sense of it together.

We separate what you can control from what belongs to your child and identify the patterns keeping everyone stuck.

03 · YOU LEAVE

You walk away with a plan.

You’ll have clear language, practical next steps, and more confidence about how to respond.

Topics we can work through

Support for the hard, complicated parts of parenting.

Boundaries and consequences
Disrespect, arguing, and conflict
Motivation and school struggles
Screens, gaming, and social media
Anxiety, ADHD, and big emotions
Lying and broken trust
Communication and connection
Launching, college, and adult kids
Your worry, guilt, anger, or fear

Meet Sheryl

Professional guidance, grounded in real-life motherhood.

I’m Sheryl Gould—a parenting educator, author, coach, and founder of Moms of Tweens and Teens. For 18 years, I’ve helped thousands of moms navigate adolescence with practical, research-informed tools that strengthen both parents and their relationships with their kids.

I’ve been married for 36 years, and I’m a mom of three adult children and grandmother of four. In my own parenting journey, our family has faced challenges including depression, anxiety, ADHD, and addiction, so I understand how complicated, frightening, and isolating these seasons can feel.

I don’t coach from a place of perfection. I bring professional experience, deep compassion, and the perspective that comes from living through hard seasons in my own family.

“Sheryl never makes me feel less than. She openly shares the light parts of parenting, the dark parts, and the lessons she has worked so hard to understand. Her honesty challenges me to think in ways I wouldn’t have considered on my own. I’m deeply grateful for her authenticity, wisdom, and servant’s heart.”

— Katherine

A steadier presence

More confidence in how to stay grounded, connected, and firm when things get hard.

What moms are saying

Real change is possible—even when things feel stuck.

Coaching with Sheryl was a game changer for my relationship with my daughter when we were at our wit’s end. After working with Sheryl for over a year, our daughter is now thriving. We are so grateful for Sheryl’s insight and wisdom.
— Heather S.
The transformation in my kids and my parenting has been fantastic. My oldest daughter and her friends sat in the kitchen telling me all the things and said, “We just love you so much. You just listen to us!” Before working one-on-one with Sheryl, this would not have happened. Little by little and day by day, it does get better.
— Jenny S.
In less than six weeks, my communication with my teen became calmer, more reasonable, and—most importantly—a discussion. I can’t thank Sheryl enough.
— Alessandra S.
After applying Sheryl’s suggestions, I immediately saw a different response from my kids. A situation that would normally trigger a negative reaction was calm and peaceful. That is worth so much.
— Lyn H.
When I first reached out to Sheryl, it was 4 a.m. I had awakened in a cold sweat, worried about my son and not knowing what to do. Sheryl made me feel heard and understood. Since working with her, my life has improved dramatically. There are far fewer 4 a.m. freak-outs, and when they happen, I feel much better equipped to handle them.
— Jamie S.
I am blown away by how eye-opening this has been. I’ve done a lot of therapy and understand many of my family-of-origin patterns, but what Sheryl has taught me has been next-level freeing.
— Sarrah P.
Sheryl’s guidance helped me almost immediately. She brings so much wisdom while being relatable, real, and deeply caring. She never makes me feel bad for not knowing what to do yet.
— Sophie K.
What I learned from Sheryl has been crucial to my growth and my son’s. Things have improved so much. We’re now able to interact on a healthier, more positive, and loving level.
— Shannon Y.

Common questions

Before we begin

What if I don’t know how many sessions I need?

That’s completely okay. Start by reaching out. We can talk about what’s happening and choose the amount of support that makes the most sense.

Can my spouse or co-parent join?

Yes, when it would be helpful and everyone is comfortable participating. We can decide together before the session.

Can you help when anxiety or ADHD is part of the picture?

Yes. Coaching can help you respond more effectively, communicate more clearly, and create supportive boundaries. Coaching is educational support and is not a substitute for medical or mental-health care.

Is coaching the same as therapy?

No. Coaching is future-focused and practical. We’ll concentrate on parenting patterns, communication, boundaries, and next steps. I don’t diagnose or treat mental-health conditions.

What does weekly text support include?

Six- and eight-session packages include text support between sessions for brief questions, encouragement, and help applying what we discussed. Messages are answered during regular weekday hours, typically within 12 hours, and are not intended for emergencies.

What happens after I reach out?

You’ll share a little about what’s going on, and we’ll arrange a brief conversation to make sure coaching feels like a good fit.

You don’t have to keep carrying this by yourself.

Let’s find your next right step.

Bring the situation exactly as it is. We’ll make sense of it together and help you move forward with more clarity, confidence, and connection.
