Testimonial:
"Prior to your workshop, Paulette, I had been feeling pretty discouraged. We've been married 38 years and I've found all but the first six years very challenging. We've been going to fortnightly marriage counselling for the last 4 years with someone who understands Asperger's, but I felt frustrated that she seemed to make a lot of excuses for Perter's behaviours. He enjoyed going to her but I couldn't see many changes in our relationship. At $180 an hour with no medical rebate and seemingly little progress, I suggested we have a break and concentrate on the NVC material you covered with us instead.
At last, although he has his strong perspectives on things, with a fair bit of prompting and encouragement from me, he is beginning to associate a name of a feeling with body sensations, and guesses a feeling for himself, and even for my daughter and me! It has been such a breakthrough. It has been worth waiting for. Of course, there are many years of habitual patterns in our interactions to work through but I think we're heading in a positive direction at last.
So thanks for your part in that, and your commitment to sharing NVC and being so calm, caring and encouraging in your workshop. I feel so inspired by people like you who model compassion and compassionate communication. It is truly a life-enriching gift that you share with the world. It encourages me to be the change I want to see in the world.
Thanks!"

"Hi, Paulette
I've thought of you sometimes lately. When I hear people often use non NVC, I strongly reminded the importance of NVC and thought I would like to refresh my NVC skill.
Especially now I became a Naturopath, have started my business and would like to communicate with my clients with NVC.
Anyway, today I wanted to share something and say thank you to you once again.
I wonder if you remember when I had a private session with you.
I particularly wanted to communicate to a person and asked you to help me writing an email to him with NVC. I haven't had any reply from him But today, he suddenly contacted me
I feel very thankful to you that you helped me with NVC and I could reconnect with this person.
I still remember the first time that you responded me with NVC.
I felt like crying because I was so moved with your NVC and I thought my needs were understood by you.
And it was a big healing for me more than any counselling.
Thank you so much, Paulette. "

I really got a lot out of this course. It changed my approach to myself and others."

"I have found weekly Coaching sessions to be a tremendous benefit to my relationship with my partner and with communication in general. Before my sessions with Paulette I never had the tools to express myself. This meant that either I had no voice or that when things had built up enough I either exploded or imploded. It also helped me to truly listen to others. To change my lifetime of poor communication skills has taken much more than a workshop or reading a book. I needed to live this and make this part of my lifestyle. The only way for this to happen was regular sessions of practical NVC." S.W. Dance Teacher Uki
"Overall I found your uncluttered and clam approach very easy to work with and stay interested throughout the workshop."
