Compassionate Communication

Compassionate Communication: The Art of Empathic Listening & Speaking

In this course, participants learn the basics of a communication model known as Nonviolent Compassionate Communication (NVC). It is a language of authenticity (compassionate honesty) and also empathy (listening well to yourself and to others).

Learning the language of NVC is simple… just not necessarily easy, given the ‘habits of a lifetime’ we have each developed so far.  The goal of NVC is learning to discover what is really “alive” in us and others, versus making assumptions, judgments and diagnoses.
