A TESTIMONIAL:

"Steve, I loved your session!  It was the first time ever I felt like I was finally heard and understood.  It was the first time ever that I truly empathized with someone and really knew where they are coming from. It was the first time ever that it wasn't 'just me'... it was both of us that were truly listening to each other and communicating the real feelings and needs that reside within us...thanks to your expert coaching and mediation!"

More Testimonials


Many have enjoyed the life-enrichment benefits of personal communication coaching services:


"I now see NVC as a pure language of love.  Reading Marshall Rosenberg's book was a wonderful eye opener--it showed me how I'd learned from my culture to perceive and speak in non-compassionate ways.  Practicing the language of compassion was challenging, but with help from the NVC practice group, I began to make significant changes in my everyday communication.  The greatest gift comes from the quality of my relationships resulting especially from Steve's help and understanding.  He is compassionate and truly models NVC clearly and effectively.  I feel grateful for his inspired coaching, and to the Miami practice group for all their support.  I feel very excited and hopeful when I witness the highly developed skills of people who have been practicing NVC longer than I."

"Steve... many thanks for helping us get on the right track... it feels so good so be communicating honestly and easily without the judgments. I can't imagine how those things could have been expressed without our sessions.  But also what I want to say is it was so great how we were able to express years worth of built-up family issues, and even some that spanned generations...and we now talk about this way of communicating and are working it into practice, so thank you so much for being available to help us with this!"


--  Ashley, Ft. Lauderdale, FL


"I have worked with Steve Pollack for a number of years. I continue to be enriched, cherished and assisted in my personal growth by practicing NVC under his leadership. Steve is an empathic and caring facilitator who creates and maintains a safe container for rigorous and honest practice. To anyone interested in learning NVC, confronting personal crisis, or facilitating personal growth, I recommend him to you most highly."

-- Stephanie King, NVC practitioner, N. Miami, FL
Florida Teacher of the Year (2000)


"As I read through all that Steve has written, I think of how I see him as the facilitator of our regular NVC meetings. I see a man who represents what I believe he would like to help others achieve in their own lives. Among other qualities, he is relaxed, comfortable, knowledgeable, skilled, focused, helpful and "in the moment," regardless of what else he may have going on in his life. Communication is the key."
