Bio:

Growing up in a family in which genuine connection was an artifact and the other person was always to blame, and later seeing my parents going through a painful divorce, I was keenly aware that there must be another way. With the help of Nonviolent Communication, which I have been studying since 2002, I learned how to transform my own adversarial patterns of communication which dramatically improved my relationships with my husband, parents, friends, colleagues, and strangers.

Nonviolent Communication Skills for Parents.

In this interactive 6-week series you will learn practical skills to:
- Handle disagreements with more confidence and ease
- Understand your own needs and needs of your kids
- Express yourself so you're heard and understood
- Listen to your kids, so they feel heard and respected
- Foster cooperation and trust
- Create outstanding lifelong relationships with your kids
Plus we will create a supportive community with other like-minded parents.
