Discover Your Potential with Grey Owl Education Consulting
What Guides My Work
I follow the most up-to-date research in ADHD and executive functioning while consistently drawing from the work of experts I’ve followed for years—especially Dr. Russell Barkley, Dr. Peg Dawson, and Dr. Edward Hallowell. My approach combines evidence-based practices with practical, real-world strategies developed over 20+ years as an educator and intervention specialist.
Coaching Process
- Educate
- Assess
- Set Goals
- Build Systems
- Reflect+Adapt
Educate
Help clients understand ADHD and executive functioning—how it works in the brain, how it affects everyday life, and what it means for them personally.
Tools: ADHD education resources, real-life examples, strength-based reframing
Assess
Identify where support is needed by evaluating the client’s executive function profile, habits, routines, and current systems.
Tools: Executive Function questionnaire, discussion, self-assessments
Set Goals
Clarify what the client wants to work on. Goals are always specific, realistic, and collaboratively created to meet the client where they are.
Tools: SMART goals, weekly planning templates, visual schedules, and more
Build Systems
Introduce personalized strategies and tools. This phase is highly adaptive and includes a lot of trial, error, and feedback.
Tools: Calendars, timers, habit trackers, study systems, cue-based supports
Reflect + Assess
Celebrate small wins, talk about what’s working (and what isn’t), and adjust strategies to keep things sustainable and meaningful.
Tools: Weekly check-ins, progress tracking, reflection prompts
