Parent Coaching for

Calm, Confident Parenting

One-on-one support with Susan Morley

Atlanta & Virtual


I provide one-on-one parent coaching for families who want to reduce power struggles, set clear boundaries, and parent with more confidence without constant yelling or over-explaining.


My work focuses on practical, real-life parenting challenges, including:

  • behavior and defiance

  • screen-time conflict

  • emotional reactivity

  • follow-through and consistency

This is non-clinical parenting support designed to help parents lead calmly, make clear decisions, and create steadier routines at home.

Parent coaching helps families develop structure, communication strategies, and boundaries that support respectful behavior and emotional resilience. I work with parents of strong-willed children to create personalized plans that fit their family dynamics and day-to-day life; not generic parenting advice or trends.

A Different Way to Think About “Gentle Parenting”

Many of the parents I work with are already thoughtful, emotionally aware, and deeply invested in their kids.

They’ve tried gentle parenting strategies and still feel stuck.

Not because they’re doing it wrong.
But because some advice leaves out something essential: clear leadership.

👈 In this short video, I explain what often gets missed and what helps parents of strong-willed kids feel calmer and more confident at home.

The Question Parents Ask Most Often

“What is a parenting coach?”

A parenting coach helps parents change patterns — not personalities.

Think of it as practical, one-on-one support focused on how parenting actually plays out day to day, not diagnoses or long-term therapy.

Most of the parents I work with are already loving, emotionally aware, and deeply invested in their kids.

What they’re missing isn’t effort, it’s a clear strategy that holds up under real-life pressure.

When parenting feels stuck in power struggles, second-guessing, or giving in just to keep the peace, it’s usually not because a parent is “too soft.”

It’s because the approach needs structure.

How Parent Coaching Helps

As your parenting coach, I help you:

  • notice what’s already working and build from there

  • reduce power struggles by clarifying expectations

  • set boundaries without guilt or over-explaining

  • respond more calmly — without needing to react immediately

  • feel more confident leading your family, even on hard days

This work isn’t about perfect parenting.

It’s about having a plan that fits your child, your values, and your real life with support as you put it into practice.

A Steadier Way to Lead Strong-Willed Kids

Parenting doesn’t need to feel like constant management or emotional damage control.

When parents shift from reacting in the moment to leading with clarity, something changes:

  • decisions feel simpler

  • boundaries hold

  • and parenting takes less emotional energy

This isn’t about controlling behavior.
It’s about modeling leadership calmly and consistently.

That’s the foundation of my work.

Calm

You’ll speak less and more clearly, so your child hears you without yelling, over-explaining, or negotiating everything.

Confidence

You’ll make parenting decisions more easily and hold boundaries that stick without second-guessing yourself.

Connection

Even when limits are enforced, your child experiences you as steady and present.

A Note About Me

Hi, I’m Susan Morley.

I’m a parenting coach, educator, and mom of two (including one strong-willed child).

I help parents slow things down, stop reacting in the moment, and lead their families with more clarity and confidence.

My work is practical, non-clinical, and focused on what actually helps at home,  not perfect parenting or internet trends.

Parents work with me because I’m calm, direct, and honest about what works with strong-willed kids — and what doesn’t.

How Parents Usually Get Started

You don’t need to know the “right” option yet.

Most parents begin by having a simple conversation to talk through what’s going on and decide what kind of support would be most helpful.

From there, we choose a path that fits your family whether that’s a focused session, a short-term reset, or longer-term support.

There’s no pressure to decide everything at once.

A Steadier Way Forward

Parenting doesn’t suddenly become easy — but it does become clearer.

With the right structure and support, parents often notice:

  • fewer power struggles

  • clearer boundaries

  • less emotional exhaustion

  • more confidence in everyday decisions

That’s the work we do together.
