Family constellation
Reconnect with belonging, love, and the power of inner lineage
What is a family constellation?
-
Family Constellation is a systemic treatment method developed by psychotherapist Bert Hellinger. It is based on representational work, allowing us to uncover deep, sometimes unspoken, family patterns that continue to operate in us today.
-
The method seeks to restore order to family relationships, and to enable a sense of belonging, stability, and a renewed connection to the roots from which we came, so that we can choose a more complete life.
When can family constellation help?
-
When you feel emotional outbursts or a repeating pattern.
-
When there is emotional burden whose origin is not always clear.
-
When there is a gap between external functioning and internal feeling.
-
When you want to let go of something old and start moving forward.
What happens in treatment?
-
In constellation work we don't "talk about" - we see.
-
Through symbolic representations, connections, silent loyalties, and family secrets that have been preserved across generations can be revealed - without us knowing anything about them.
-
When they become clear in the field, the possibility of profound change opens up.
This is a process that takes place out of respect for every part of the system, and out of a desire to restore everyone to their place.
What does a family constellation allow?
-
To see what has been hidden until now.
-
To release emotional weight that doesn't belong to us.
-
To restore belonging to those who have been excluded.
-
To free ourselves from the unconscious roles we have taken on.
-
To open a new place in life – of choice, love, and inner peace.
Constellation in groups or in a clinic?
-
The constellation exists in various formats:
-
Individual meeting – with representative figures (on cards, wooden figures or objects).
-
Group constellation – in which participants represent the characters of your personal story, through an intuitive and surprising connection.
-
Sometimes just watching your dynamics represented by others opens up a new movement of healing.
Why is Constellation part of my toolbox?
Because often times, personal pain is not just yours and healing does not only pass through you, but through you also passes to others.
A family constellation allows for a connection to the roots, to the earth, to those who came before us - and hence also to your growth as a free, present, and loving person.
Side effects after the encounter
-
Constellation work continues to "work" even after the session ends.
In the days following the encounter, there may be changes in sensations, energy, dreams, or emotions — these are signs that a new movement is beginning to take hold. -
I recommend slowing down, listening to your body, and letting things rest.
