Unlocking Empathy: NVC Workshop Berlin

A two-day Nonviolent Communication (NVC) workshop in Berlin on June 13–14, 2026, led by Ido Sternberg, CNVC-certified trainer and mediator.

About the workshop

In this Berlin weekend workshop, we’ll explore, experience, and unlock the power of empathy and self-empathy. The course is based on Nonviolent Communication (NVC), a practical approach that helps people communicate with more clarity, honesty, and care.

You’ll get a hands-on experience with empathic listening – learning how to be present with others in a way that builds trust, deepens understanding, and opens space for more meaningful conversations, even when things are difficult.
This workshop is suitable for beginners and for anyone curious about learning Nonviolent Communication.

An entire workshop dedicated to Empathy?

Yes :) Empathy is the key to connection and understanding. It plays a huge role in every interaction we have - at work, in our relationships, and in how we relate to ourselves. Imagine what our polarized world would look like if all of us had more empathy for each other!

Some of the subjects we’ll cover:

• How to connect with the feelings and worldviews of others (even when they contradict ours)

• Transcending listening habits that create disconnection

• Self-Empathy: The art of self-connection

• Empathy & Boundaries

• Empathy for Conflict Transformation

This workshop is based on Nonviolent Communication (NVC) - a mindful communication approach developed by psychologist Marshall Rosenberg. It teaches how to connect, moment-by-moment, with what's most human in ourselves and others, ultimately transforming the way we relate to one another. Rooted in compassion, NVC shows a path to expressing our authenticity while connecting emphatically with the people in our lives.
