What is Empathologie?

• • •

Empathologie is a revolutionary new way of hearing, thinking and speaking that helps nurture connections and reduce conflict by neutralizing and depersonalizing language. This practice of compassionate communication invites us to understand and empathize with the differences in our thinking styles and have compassion for the needs that we are attempting to get met by our behaviors and strategies. It is a language of the heart that fosters empathy and helps us interact in ways that leave everyone feeling more whole and genuinely connected.

“Compassion is not a virtue, it’s a commitment. It’s not something we have or don’t have. It’s something we choose to practice.”

Hi! My name is Jen and I have been practicing and teaching the art of Compassionate Communication since 2012. I am a Communication Specialist, Empathologist, Empowerment Advocate and Compassion Crusader. I enjoy working with individuals, groups and couples to create rich and meaningful connections and have an extra special passion for supporting women and parents in establishing empowered and authentic relationships .

I combine two powerful techniques, The Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI), a process that helps people understand the power of thinking styles in personality and Compassionate Communication (aka NVC), a process that offers simple, yet effective communication tools that reduce conflict and deepen connections.

I love what I do and look forward to sharing these principles with you and guiding you toward the loving relationships that you desire!

When I began to work with her one on one, I saw the true power of Jennifer's love, compassion and the ability to express in a concise and clear manner. She told me that NVC was a new language. I find Jennifer a scholar of that language. Ever present. Ever open. Ever loving.
