90. Navigating “Complex” Love: Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy for Neurodivergent Couples (Dyslexia, ADHD, Autism ...) with Dr. Jill Corvelli - Pt. 2

1 hour 8 minutes

Dr. Jill Corvelli is founder of the ND Partners Institute, which is dedicated to supporting complex couples, many of which are neurodiverse. She developed the ND Compass, which is an approach that helps complex couples navigate the differences that keep triggering and tripping them up.

Within the last year, Dr Corvelli added work in non-ordinary states of consciousness as a tool in support of Differentiation and Autonomic Reset. The ND Partners Institute also offers groups, there is an upcoming group starting in May 2024 for women in Complex-Couple Relationships and a Complex-Couples group in September 2024. In addition to serving clients within the ND Partners Institute, she provides adjunct services for clients already engaged in therapeutic work. She is also a certified facilitator in Oregon, and you can find her offerings within that work at 2 CATHARSIS.
