Testimonials
“Working with Kathy is a transformative, empowering and life changing experience. Drawing from her extensive background in Marshall Rosenberg's Compassionate Communication, Kathy guides me to take accountability for my feelings (vs. blaming others), and helps me unwind old patterns of taking too much responsibility for others' experiences. Consequently, I feel more empowered and heart centered--more empathetic to others and myself. Kathy is deeply skilled and gifted at listening and asking questions that empower me to access my own wisdom. After each session I feel clearer, calmer, uplifted and excited about life.” — Erin
“I have partnered with Kathy in a coaching relationship on two separate occasions, several years apart. Though the purpose and focus of our coaching sessions differed over the years, each series of sessions left me with improved peace of mind, a deeper understanding of my thoughts and emotions, and enhanced clarity on the issues I wanted to address. Kathy's listening skills are one of her greatest assets. She was able to help me hear myself in ways that I couldn't have achieved on my own. She would often ask if I was open to receive her observations, which always brought deeper awareness and moved me closer to my goals. I will be forever grateful for the sessions I have had with Kathy and the tools that I now have to use in my daily life. I know beyond a doubt that I will continue to work with her in the future.” — Laura C.
If you are searching for a better way to communicate and cope with challenging people and situations, then this is worth every minute of your time. Kathy’s skills as an NVC coach are outstanding! When I first started I was insecure, afraid of confrontation, with poor self esteem. I am now a confident woman who has learned how to deal with difficult situations. My self confidence and my self esteem has soared. Amazing what you learn with skills, from just learning how to really listen, how to not take things personally, how to handle yourself. Thank you Kathy Black, I am a new woman! — Gail S.
