While every individual and partnership is unique, there are common patterns that emerge in the stages a couple progresses through as they continue their work from disconnection to connection. Jill shares her observations from years of experience working with ND partners over thousands of sessions.

Dr. Corvelli is the founder of the Neurodiverse Partners Institute. She has a practice dedicated exclusively to supporting complex couples, many of which one or both partners are neurodistinct. She developed a unique approach for helping such couples called the ND Compass. It is a weaving together of best relational practices melded with a best practice ND lens. She has helped hundreds of couples on their developmental path of co existing, connecting, and even thriving with their different styles. In addition to serving her clients, she works as a neurodiverse advocate training the helping professions as well as a clinical supervisor for Northwestern University.
