Naomi Jackson, PhD, Professor of Dance, Arizona State University

” Nora Heiber is an extremely compassionate and close listener. She is able to tease out the most important aspects of what is communicated to her and then articulate in words what is often a blur of feelings and thoughts on the part of the speaker. Moreover, once she has nailed the exact issues at stake, she is able to offer insight into possible strategies to draw on to resolve any conflicts or problems. Heiber draws on her training in NVC as well as work in restorative justice in her work. I also believe that her experience as a professional dancer and work as a union representative have provided her with special tools that are valuable in working specifically with dance artists from many backgrounds. I highly recommend Nora; she is simply exceptional. “
