I discovered NVC in 2007: at the time I was very involved in my work in prisons for the International Red Cross (ICRC), and I was looking for keys to understand how human beings function. I wanted to find ways to prevent conflicts and their dramatic consequences. Immediately won over by the process, I finally left humanitarian diplomacy to devote myself fully to this profound approach that effectively allows conflicts to be resolved.

To do this, I trained in NVC mediation at the Ecole des Médiateurs, then I joined the national education system as a mediator in a college in the suburbs of Paris. In 2014-2015, I began sharing NVC with associations and companies. Today I work in the private and public sectors, to allow people to experience the power of this process, find keys to better understand themselves, and overcome internal and relational conflicts.

For this, I was part of the teaching team of the Emergence Institute (mediation training: https://www.institutemergence.com/ ) and Déclic ( https://www.declic-cnveducation.org/ ). Also fascinated by the IFS (Internal Family System), I use it in individual support with NVC, as well as IR (Relational Intelligence), which allows the nervous system to be recalibrated.
