About this Event

In this workshop, participants will learn how to have hard conversations within their relationships. Participants will have the opportunity to practice a process developed by psychologists known as Nonviolent Communication. Discover how to gain confidence in communicating your needs more effectively, and in navigating conflict with family members, partners, friends, coworkers, and more, so you can develop more connected and fulfilling relationships.

Register early as space is limited.
