About Me

Transforming Conflict into Connection

Conflict is a natural part of our life. When approached with care and skill, it becomes a pathway to growth and deeper connection—especially when we learn to speak honestly and listen with the intention to truly understand and connect.

Nsengiyaremye Dismas, Peace and Conflict Expert, and NVC facilitator, currently undergoing certification process with the Center for Nonviolent Communication (CNVC).

I train and coach individuals and groups as they reconnect with their inner resources and grow into their full potential. With a foundation in peace and conflict transformation, I use practical tools like Nonviolent Communication and the Alternatives to Violence approaches to support healing, honest and authentic communication, and lasting change—within ourselves and in our communities/families.
