Neurodiverse City Connection
Affirming neurodiversity. Empowering authenticity. Building self-confidence. Encouraging unmasking.

Hello, I'm Charlotte Benstine!
Over the past five years, I have supported neurodivergent individuals of all ages in strengthening executive functioning skills, managing daily demands, and navigating everyday life with less stress and greater self-trust. My work focuses on helping clients build sustainable strategies for organization, planning, emotional regulation, and follow-through, skills that directly impact confidence, independence, and overall well-being.
​
My coaching is grounded in a neurodivergent-affirming, strengths-based approach that prioritizes understanding over masking. I believe natural patterns, preferences, and strengths are worth honoring rather than forcing into systems that do not fit. Rather than encouraging clients to push harder, I help them discover executive function strategies that work with their brain, energy, and real-life demands.
​
I have spent years supporting neurodivergent adults in learning more about themselves, understanding their needs, and building practical strategies to navigate daily life with greater ease. Many of my adult clients come to coaching feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to manage tasks, routines, or responsibilities in ways that align with who they are. I provide a compassionate and patient space where individuals can explore challenges, recognize their strengths, and develop tools that feel realistic and sustainable.
​
I also have extensive experience coaching children and teens, and I am especially passionate about supporting teens as they navigate the unique challenges of adolescence. I help young clients build confidence, self-awareness, and practical strategies for executive functioning.
​
In addition to working with individuals, I love supporting parents of neurodivergent children and teens. I help parents understand their child’s unique development and needs while teaching them how to manage their own well-being as they navigate the challenges of caregiving. My approach emphasizes practical strategies, emotional support, and self-care so parents can feel confident, regulated, and empowered while helping their children thrive.
​
Executive functioning is foundational to daily stability and emotional calm. When these skills are supported, many people notice improvements across multiple areas of life, including emotional regulation, problem-solving, long-term planning, and relationships. When executive functioning is overwhelmed, it can feel nearly impossible to think clearly, stay organized, or feel in control. Strengthening these skills is often the first step toward feeling more grounded, capable, and less stressed.
​
Together, we break challenges into manageable steps, build supportive routines, and create practical systems that reduce stress and increase independence. My goal is to provide compassionate, realistic coaching that supports executive functioning, daily life skills, and lasting self-trust, so life feels lighter, more manageable, and more aligned with who you are.
