May You be healed !
Family Constellation Therapy is a therapeutic approach that helps individuals explore and resolve issues stemming from family dynamics, ancestral patterns, and unresolved traumas. It provides insights into hidden family dynamics and offers a path to healing and reconciliation.
Family Constellation Therapy was developed by Bert Hellinger, a German psychotherapist, philosopher, and former priest. Bert Hellinger introduced this method in the late 20th century based on his observations of family systems and their impact on individual well-being.
Family Constellation Therapy typically involves a group setting facilitated by a trained therapist. Participants represent family members or elements of the family system, and through a process of guided exploration, hidden dynamics are revealed.
Representatives, chosen by the client or randomly selected from the group, stand in for family members or elements. They are guided by their feelings and intuitions rather than their own thoughts, allowing them to tap into the collective energy of the family system.
During a session, the facilitator invites the client to present their issue or concern. Through the placement of representatives and guided interactions, the facilitator helps uncover underlying family dynamics, entanglements, and unresolved issues.
Family Constellation Therapy can provide deep insights into the root causes of personal issues, relationship difficulties, and emotional challenges. By bringing these dynamics to light, it allows for healing, resolution, and a sense of peace.
While Family Constellation Therapy can be transformative for many individuals, it may not be suitable for all issues or circumstances. It is essential to consult with us to determine if this approach is appropriate for your specific needs.
Family Constellations are often conducted in group settings, as the group energy can enhance the process. However, we offer individual sessions with a trained facilitator for those who prefer a more private experience.
The number of sessions needed varies depending on the complexity of the issue and the individual’s response to the therapy. Some people may find resolution in just one session, while others may benefit from ongoing work.
Family Constellation Therapy can complement other therapeutic approaches and is often used in conjunction with traditional therapy. It is essential to communicate with your therapist if you are receiving multiple forms of therapy to ensure they work together effectively.
Family Constellation Therapy can benefit many individuals seeking to understand and heal family dynamics. However, it may not be appropriate for those with severe mental health conditions, who are under any psychiatric treatment or individuals who are not open to exploring their family history.
