 [ READ IN TRAINER'S PRIMARY LANGUAGE ](#in-primary-language)

As a Certified Trainer and Assessor for Nonviolent communication according to Marshall Rosenberg, I am committed to appreciative coexistence in society in which sincere self-expression and empathy have their place and in which the needs of everyone are taken into account and taken seriously. I am interested in spreading non-violent communication and training trainers who support the vision of a non-violent world. As a mediator, I would like to help ensure that conflicts in all areas of society are resolved non-violently and respectfully and that solutions are found that everyone involved sees as a win.

In individual counseling and coaching, it is very important to me to support people in recognizing and living their full potential. In my opinion, it takes living people who have their unlimited potential at their disposal, as well as the creativity, courage and persistence of each individual in order to establish long-term, life-supporting systems in all areas of society.

#  Trainer's primary language

Als **Trainerin** **und Assessorin für** **Gewaltfreie Kommunikation** nach Rosenberg setze ich mich ein für ein wertschätzendes Miteinander in der Gesellschaft, in der aufrichtiger Selbstausdruck und Empathie ihren festen Platz haben und in der die Bedürfnisse *aller* berücksichtigt und ernst genommen werden. Ich bin daran interessiert, die Gewaltfreie Kommunikation zu verbreiten und TrainerInnen auszubilden, die die Vision einer gewaltfreien Welt mittragen. Ich möchte als **Mediatorin** dazu beitragen, dass Konflikte in allen Bereichen der Gesellschaft gewaltfrei und respektvoll ausgetragen und Lösungen gefunden werden, die alle Beteiligten als Gewinn ansehen.

Mir ist es in der **Einzelberatung und im Coaching** ein großes Anliegen, Menschen zu unterstützen, ihr gesamtes Potential zu erkennen und zu leben. Es braucht meiner Meinung nach lebendige Menschen, denen ihr uneingeschränktes Potential zu Verfügung steht, sowie die Kreativität, den Mut und die Beharrlichkeit jedes/jeder einzelnen, um langfristig lebensdienliche Systeme in allen Bereichen der Gesellschaft zu etablieren.

 [ Trainer's Website ](http://www.empathy-first.com)

Henry Ford (1863-1947): Wenn es überhaupt ein Geheimnis des Erfolges gibt, so besteht es in der Fähigkeit, sich auf den Standpunkt des anderen zu stellen und die Dinge ebenso von seiner Warte aus zu betrachten wie von unserer. / If there is a secret to success, it is the ability to stand in the other person's point of view and look at things from their point of view as well as ours.
