What is empathic coaching?

Empathic coaching offers the empathy practice of NVC in one-to-one sessions. These sessions differ from therapy, from conventional coaching and from consulting — they rest on full presence and deep listening rather than on guidance.

The purpose is not to hand you a solution or tell you what to do, but to be alongside you as you reach your own inner wisdom.

When might you come?

A difficult feeling is hard to sit with: anger, grief, disappointment, fear — and you would rather not be alone with it
You are inside a relational conflict: and you want to get clear on what you feel and what you want
You are on the edge of an important decision: and you want to see your needs and values more clearly
You are struggling to understand yourself: why did I react that way, what happened, what did I feel?
You want to receive empathy: to be genuinely heard, without judgment and without being handed a fix

How a session works

You arrive with a situation, a feeling or a question. I listen — with the deep empathy practice of NVC. From time to time I reflect back what you might be feeling or needing. Sometimes we sit together in silence.

Sessions often close around one question: “What would you like to see, or to do, now?”

Length: Up to 2 hours (usually 60–90 minutes)
Where: Zoom or in person
How often: As you need — weekly, fortnightly, or a single session

Do I need to know NVC?

No. Empathic coaching sessions ask no prior knowledge of NVC. They move in your language, at your pace.

About the first session

The first session is usually an introductory one. We meet each other, you share briefly what you are bringing, and you decide whether you would like to try working together.
