Welcome! My name is Marla…

As Registered Psychiatric Nurse for over 40 years, I have supported clients across diverse settings before discovering the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) in 2005, as taught by Marshall Rosenberg, PhD.

Its clarity and transformative impact were immediate.
I became a Certified NVC Trainer in 2010, integrating this work with my background in Psychiatric Nursing, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to create empathic, practical pathways to mental wellness.

Myself and my team will work to support you in creating personal goals and working through challenges such as communication difficulties, depression, anxiety, overwhelm, substance concerns, anger, and hurt.

Coaching | Workshops | Events

Whether you’re looking for coaching, mediation, team-building, or workshops, I create spaces where people can learn, connect, and grow together. I’m certified in Nonviolent Communication and bring years of experience teaching DBT, CBT, WRAP, and other evidence-based approaches to help individuals and teams communicate more effectively and build stronger, more compassionate relationships.
