Transforming Lives Through Embodied Relational Presence

From Inspiration to Integration

My journey into Nonviolent Communication (NVC) began with a moment that forever shaped my calling. During a transformative training, I watched Marshall Rosenberg connect with a man who could only express distress through loud moaning. Marshall’s compassionate, grounded presence helped the man rediscover his humanity — and in that moment, I realised that presence itself can be profoundly healing.

That experience became my North Star: to offer that same quality of transformative presence to others, and to help reweave the threads of empathy, embodiment, and awareness back into human and ecological life.

Embodied Relational Presence — Integrating NVC, Focusing, and Mindfulness

My work weaves together Nonviolent Communication, Focusing, and Mindfulness into an approach I call Embodied Relational Presence — a somatically-oriented way of being that cultivates deep self-connection, authentic expression, and compassionate relationship.

This approach invites us to listen not only with our minds and hearts, but also through the body — as an instrument of empathy and wisdom — restoring our natural capacity for attunement, resilience, and creative response.

In a time of ecological and social crisis, I see this embodied, relational awareness as essential to our collective healing and regeneration — transforming reactivity into presence, and despair into empowered action.

Holistic Support for Growth and Healing

I support individuals, couples, and groups through coaching, facilitation, and training that integrates personal healing with relational and ecological awareness. My work includes support for:

• Somatically orientated NVC for Wellbeing, personal and community thriving.

• Depression, anxiety, and trauma recovery

• Relationship and communication skills

• Mediation and conflict transformation

• Cultivating resilience and purpose

Each encounter is grounded in the principles of NVC — empathy, honesty, and connection — alongside somatic awareness and mindful presence.

A Vision for Regenerative Change

I believe that personal transformation and systemic change are inseparable. My work and activism focus on ecological regeneration, social equity, and nonviolent living, supporting grassroots and community-led initiatives that embody these values.

True transformation, for me, happens where personal empowerment meets collective action, where we rediscover our belonging in the larger web of life.

Connecting with You

At heart, my work is about connection — real human connection.
If you’re drawn to explore how presence, empathy, and embodied awareness can transform your relationships, work, or community, I’d love to connect.

Together, we can sense into what truly wants to unfold — at the fresh edge of life.
