I am a Nonviolent Communication (NVC) trainer and parent coach, certified by Jai Institute for parenting. My work isn’t about parenting strategies - it’s about how we relate to ourselves, to our children, and to the world around us. We achieve this by understanding the WHY behind children’s behaviours: their feelings, needs, and unique perspectives.
I am also the creator of The Present Parent, a movement for those who believe parenting can be rooted in presence, not survival. Over time, I’ve witnessed how this paradigm shift transformed my relationship with my son, then my partnership, and eventually my work with parents. Since 2019, I’ve been guiding parents and teachers to face challenges with empathy, develop a vocabulary of needs, and build relationships grounded in trust, awareness, and mutual respect.
🫂 I support parents who want to:
- break old patterns
- understand their children’s emotions & needs (and their own)
- create a home where everyone feels heard
- build strong, secure relationships
🏫 I also stand by teachers & schools that want to:
- build emotionally safe and respectful classrooms
- increase conflict resolution and collaboration
- create supportive, inclusive learning environments.
- foster stronger relationships with students, colleagues, and parents
🌟 Whether through coaching, workshops, or talks, my mission is simple: I help families and educators shift from reactive patterns to compassionate, conscious communication—without guilt, shame, or power struggles.
I work with both Romanian and English-speaking families, schools, and teachers.

Testimonials
“Working with Anca has been a deeply healing journey. I’ve learned to reconnect with myself, understand the roots of my anger, and recognize where I held unrealistic expectations. I’ve learned to say ‘no,’ to set gentle, guilt-free boundaries. My relationship with my children has transformed beautifully, with more understanding and closeness.” (Beatrice S.)
“With great tact and patience, Anca manages—both in coaching sessions and through her course—to guide you step by step toward a new way of seeing things. For me, she brought a fresh and insightful perspective on how we can view our interactions with others through the lens of needs, both our own and those of the people around us. (Corina T.)
“Anca helped me understand where all my impulses and reactions come from, and with her guidance I was able to bring more balance to the way I respond and act. I learned how to truly listen to and understand my child, and what to do to navigate his reactions—especially during the difficult 2–3-year stage, when everything felt impossible.” (Iulia C.)
“Empathy, understanding, and support—these are just a few of the words that describe my interactions with Anca. She asks questions in a way that turns the answers into true revelations. I’ve started a new path in my relationship with my daughter, but also with myself. I hope I can turn this path I’ve begun into a wide, steady road.” (Alina M.)
“Once you meet Anca, you won’t be the same. Your life, your perspective on things, your home—everything will change. It’s fascinating how, every time I take part in one of her projects, Anca knows exactly how to ask questions that bring answers to the surface on their own, from the deepest and most hidden layers of the soul.“ (Anamaria H.)
