Course Description
Workplace culture is shaped by how we communicate.
Explore the practical tools of NVC with Anita Melin, a registered clinical counsellor with the BC Association of clinical counselors, who has been operating a private practice counselling business in the Nelson BC area for more than 20 years at Open Door Communications. She had the good fortune to meet and train with the developer of NVC, Marshall Rosenberg, when working in India supporting communication clinics for grassroots organizations.
Our Communication Clinic introduces practical tools from Nonviolent Communication (NVC), a proven framework that helps leaders and employees express concerns clearly, listen with intention, and navigate conflict without blame. NVC shifts conversations from reaction to understanding — building trust, psychological safety, and stronger collaboration across teams.
Discover how NVC can transform the way your organization works — one conversation at a time.
NVC provides practical tools to:
Express concerns clearly without blame
Listen in ways that reduce tension
Understand underlying needs behind behavior
Respond rather than react under pressure
