What is Family Constellations
Family Constellations is a way of looking at a person in the context of their family system. Looking at the individual within the family system supports individuals coming to a better a place within their system. It addresses intergenerational patterns that may be affecting the individual without other members of the family having to be present. There can be unresolved emotions or situations, secrets, traumas or blockages that are carried through generations which affects the love and life force a person can experience in their life. Through Family Constellations we make contact with the systemic consciousness which is carried through the individual and family system to support movement towards resolution for the client, free of entanglements and burdens that is not theirs to hold. This supports the next generation in not repeating the same patterns. It is a somatic body-based framework that is brief, experiential and solution-focused to support the individual having a better internal connection within themselves and family system, therefore better connections in the external world.
The perspective that Family Constellations works from is that if an issue appears to come from the family system, then this is where the resolution will be. It also works within what is called the knowing field. The knowing field supports the process by providing valuable information about the issue or family system being explored and helps guide the process to a better place of connection for the client.
Sessions can be done in 1:1 or in a workshop setting (group), online or in person. In the group setting other people represent family members. Representative roles are very important in the healing, clearing and resolution for the client.
