You can also attend one of my workshops as an observer to learn more and experience the phenomenological process which cannot be described. 

Family Constellations, Systemic Family Therapy

Family Constellation work is a relatively new discipline, very popular in Europe  It is a systemic family therapy developed by Bert Hellinger, German psychotherapist, now over 80 years old. Bert Hellinger  spent last 25 -30 years uncovering, developing, practicing and teaching Family Constellations.  In his working with thousands of family systems, he observed a natural order that determines how family dynamics unfold at an unconscious level. Deviations from the natural order in previous generations will affect the lives of successive generations. Family Constellations awakens one to destructive patterns giving one the ability and awareness to see opportunities for change. From this, one's freedom of experience and growth is the natural state.  

Each person is an individual but also a product of an the environment, family and other group systems. Our emotional issues, like depression, low self-esteem, anger, anxiety, personal relationships' dynamics, and business issues are very often results of unresolved disturbances from previous generations. In the western culture, it is very common to blame parents for our issues, even completely cutting ourselves from our roots. It leads to anxiety and depression, and affects our relationships with current family, especially our children. The opposite happens in some other cultures, where parents are always put on pedestal, and events which disturb the harmony of the family are denied and forgotten. 

Family Constellations does not attempt to blame others for the situations we might find ourselves in, but rather to see the bigger picture of ourselves within the group. It is a phenomenological process, based on the philosophy of Love. According to the Family Constellations philosophy, a family is connected on a soul level, having a collective consciousness, or family group energy.  Disturbances to the "Orders of Love" in previous generations affects the lives of both concurrent and future generations. Understanding and acceptance of all family members releases the energy, individual suffering is seen in a new light and healing can happen. The Love, even when damaged and misdirected, can be transformed into a force for healing.

Bert Hellinger's work is dedicated to bringing together what has been apart, healing through the acceptance, through the respect of the heart. Facing our deepest feelings, and the feelings of our family members naturally redirects us towards love, and with the support of our ancestors, at the roots of who we are, we can receive the gifts which come form Love - the peace, the strength, and the freedom to choose our own ways.

Family Constellation method

The Family Constellation method is based on accessing the "collective consciousness" of a family group. It may sound like magic; however, everybody had experiences like this. We may sometimes feel ourselves in "somebody's shoes". And we sometimes feel strongly connected with others, perhaps when playing some team sports, or during family Christmas, or when we deeply love. However, it is much stronger during Family Constellation, when the energy of the "knowing field" forms and representatives for family members can access feelings, emotions, very often the characteristic behaviour and other knowledge of people they have never met and never heard of.

Family Constellation in private sessions

I often use Family Constellation elements during hypnotherapy sessions, especially when there is an issue with the client's family of origin, because relationships with our close family members, especially parents, affect our whole life and they are the main source of our emotions, beliefs and life strategies. The deep hypnotic state is itself a very powerful tool to access the "knowing field" and find the resolution.

Sometimes, especially when family is complex (many members, step children coming from different parents, entanglements with uncles and aunts etc) the private session is not performed in hypnosis and we use figures to represent the family members. The knowing field is formed around the figures and clients are accessing the energy of the family members from the focused, composed state similar to hypnotic trance.   

Private Family Constellation sessions are very powerful and very helpful, as resolutions are reached on a very deep level, especially when they are combined with the full therapy.

My qualifications as Family Constellations Facilitator

I am a Family Constellations Facilitator, trained originally in Australia by Yildiz and Satish Sethi. I am a member of International Systemic Association (ISCA), I attended the ISCA Intensive Constellation Training in Germany in May 2010 and again in May 2013, with many well known international teachers - Guni Baxa, Francesca Boring, Judith Hemming, Stephan Hausner, Albrecht Mahr, Jane Peterson, Sneh Victoria Schnabel, Jakob Schneider, Guntar Weber, Lap Fung Cheng, Christine Blumenstein-Essen, Constanze Lang and Jan-Jacob Stam. I am also proud to thank my additional teacher, Ursula Franke and many others.

My greatest strength as a Family Constellations Facilitator comes from years of professional experience as a hypnotherapist, the lessons I learned from thousands of clients, coming from different cultures, who shared their life experiences with me, who trusted me to open their hearts to me, who let me witness the human potential in action as they were overcoming the obstacles and making progress on their chosen path. Thank you.

Family Constellations workshops

The Family Constellation workshop is the original way the constellations are performed. It differs from private sessions, because here the experience of the "knowing field", the experience of the common consciousness is very explicit and touching.  Even participating in somebody's constellation, just being a representative or observer moves and creates a shift on many different levels, showing that we are all connected. The energy of the knowing field shows as vibrations or other physical sensations in the body. The feelings and emotions experienced by representatives are powerful, and they operate at the body, mind and soul level.

The value for the client who is having his/her constellation done is also different. Watching the movement of a constellation from a chair is different, because it gives better opening for the resolution. There is another perspective, as the client is free just to watch as the energy shows itself in the representatives. The collective energy of all participants makes the knowing field stronger, so more hidden entanglements can be shown and resolved.

Workshop Structure

The workshop is made up of two groups of people

1. Participants who are interested in setting their own constellations and to be representatives for other people constellations. The number of participants doing their own constellation is limited to 6 persons.
2. Participants who came only as observers and/or representatives for other people's constellations, limited to maximum of 14 persons.

Both groups benefit form constellations, because even being a representative or observer taps into our unresolved issues and helps us to create some shift. 

Each constellation usually takes from 25 to 45 minutes, but it could be longer or shorter than this. There are 5 to 6 constellations done in a one day workshop. 

The practical course of events for each constellation:

1. The person doing the constellation states the issue briefly. No history is needed; the person just explains the nature of the issue.
2. The facilitator asks some questions about the family structure and the most important events from the constellation view.
3. The facilitator decides which family members are relevant in solving the issues and asks the participant to choose the representatives to take the role of those family member. The participant is usually asked to choose a representative for himself/herself.
4. The participant feels his way in the centre of the room and places representatives into the position which seems proper and then sits back and observes.
5. At this time the energy field forms around the representatives and they experience the feelings of the real people they represent, even if they have no previous knowledge of their personalities or history. They also very often behave a the real person and have some knowledge of events never revealed to them.
6. The facilitator leads the constellation, connecting with the energy of the field, observing representatives, asking questions as the dynamics of the family unfolds and looking for the best resolutions.
7. At the end, when the solution is reached and the best possible order restored, the client takes his position in the Constellation to experience himself the new energy and healing.
