Supporting your organisation to thrive!
"Emma has been an invaluable support over the past year, both in helping us navigate interpersonal conflicts and in building the systems that make up our organisation. Her warmth and efficiency are remarkable, and I truly can't imagine how we would have managed our major organisational challenges without her."

Empowering Teams Through Effective Communication
In today’s dynamic and fast-paced work environment, fostering a culture of empathy and effective communication is more important than ever. I like to contribute towards the systemic changes that are needed in order for our worldwide community to thrive, through supporting passionate changemakers, people in supportive roles and leaders of teams and organizations like yours, to build stronger, more cohesive relationships together through the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC), Mindfulness practices, and the intention to relate with authenticity, building more trust and a real sense of teamwork in your work environment.
Why Work with Me?
My approach goes beyond traditional team-building exercises. Together I will invite you to delve into the core of interpersonal dynamics, providing awareness, expression and listening tools and techniques that enhance your understanding, collaboration, and mutual respect among team members. By addressing the root causes of conflict and miscommunication, we empower your team to create a more harmonious and productive work environment for everyone.

"Emma was truly amazing. She took me through a 90-minute process where I was able to role play and experiment with ways of saying what was on my heart. Her feedback revealed a blind spot that I found invaluable. Emma’s embodied presence, sensitivity, skill, and insightfulness is rare. I cannot recommend her highly enough."
- Jane Brendgen MSc, Founder of Compassionate Cultures
​
"Emma came in to teach a group of Beam caseworkers about how to set boundaries effectively. The session was incredibly insightful, and many team members have told me how they're applying the learnings. I would go as far to say that it was one of the best training experiences we've had at Beam in the past 5 years."
- Sam Black, Senior Performance Coach
​
"Emma collaborated with our team to develop a training session based on Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and empathetic listening skills. Feedback from our staff has been overwhelmingly positive. Emma's expertise and guidance greatly enriched our training, empowering staff with practical tools to enhance their professional interactions and effectiveness."
