Here’s What We Provide

What is Non Violent Resistance ?
NVR is a relational approach to deal with distressed or distressing behaviour in homes or other settings.

It was initially developed to manage child to adult violence but it has since been used to manage distress in

children and young people who have ASD, ADHD, Anxiety, school refusal etc. 
We have been using NVR successfully for a number of years in various contexts.

Customer Testimonials

From the Source

NVR gave me hope when I felt like I had exhausted all other avenues. I felt comfortable and cared for and most importantly I realised that I was not alone.

I can't believe that after being in a classroom for many years it hasnt occurred to me before now to think more about what is behind the behaviour and to spend more time building a relationship. NVR really opened my eyes about what I should be doing as a teacher.

I loved the NVR level 1 training, the fact that NVR is relational and sits well within our nurturing approach made it a perfect fit for our school.
