If it isn’t fun then she prefers not to do it. No matter what Anna does she makes it as elements of interactive play and energy.
Anna has combined all of her skills to create trainings that are fun and founded on laughter. NVC turned Anna’s life upside down and her inside out. She spent many years searching for a tool that could ‘make a difference’ in the world and when she met NVC was hooked straight away. The accessibility, simplicity and the fact that it WORKS caught her attention back then, and still does.
Anna believes that empathy is the first step towards REAL connection, and an essential part of ensuring an effective and sustainable outcome. Time after time she has witnessed the power of NVC. She also liked that it wasn’t' ‘flaky’ which means people can access it with more ease. Anna has a specific interest in adolescents, having an understanding of what drives them. She can translate their shrugs, grunts, graffiti, risky behaviour into a language that adults can hear.
Anna met NVC in 2005 and has facilitated trainings since 2007. She has worked with groups of adolescents, youth workers, teachers, parents, health professionals,and business people.
Trainings: Range From a 2 hour presentation to a full weekend workshop and can be designed to suit the needs of the organisation and/or community.
Mediation: Parent/teen mediation packages available. Contact Anna for more details.
