NVC Empathy in Presence
Empathy as embodied presence — deep connection, resilience, trust
What would it feel like to be met with total, embodied presence — every time you speak? Nonviolent Communication (NVC) calls this Empathy in Presence: not a technique performed on someone, but a quality of listening that transforms the mental exercise of empathy into genuine, felt connection.
NVC is a practical, learnable approach to infusing empathy, honesty, strength, and compassion into personal and professional relationships. This four-week Zoom course puts Empathy in Presence at the centre — mastering the embodied ground from which authentic words and gestures naturally arise.
The Three Doorways — Rolling, Start Anywhere
This course is part of a rolling trilogy. Each stands alone, but completing all three qualifies you for a Level 1 Foundation NVC certification recognised by CNVC — and you can begin with any of the three.
Doorway One — NVC Empathy in Presence: Empathy as embodied presence — deep connection, resilience, trust (this course)
Doorway Two — NVC Authentic & Sensitive Expression: Express heartfelt needs clearly and authentically, strengthen connection
Doorway Three — NVC Embodied Mediation: When Worlds Collide: Navigate conflict gracefully, de-escalate tension, create safe, confident presence

What Participants Are Saying
“Learning about NVC with Simon is a delight! His warm, playful energy and teaching through doing builds connection and confidence. This is not another training by PowerPoint online after a long day at work. It is meaningful, engaging and practical. He breaks down the key concepts of NVC and helps us nurture and love our jackal. I feel more in touch with what needs are and how to articulate them to others. I’m excited to continue my NVC journey and continue to build my communication skills.”
— Lizzie Guinness, NVC Foundation Skills course participant
