Cultivating Compassion 

A workshop for learning effective and empathic communication 

February 3, 2018 – 9:30am to 4:30pm at Albany UU 

In this one-day training, we will explore ways to create peaceful relationships with self and others by learning and practicing how to:

• identify and express personal needs and intentions
• clarify and understand the needs and intentions of others 
• reduce reactivity in self and others

Philomena Moriarty, LCSW, has been facilitating workshops and practice groups for several years using the principles and practices of Nonviolent Communication. She freely offers this introductory workshop to anyone seeking a peaceful means for existing in a chaotic world.
