What is Family Constellation?

Understanding Family Constellations

Family Constellation is a therapeutic method that reveals hidden dynamics within family systems. Developed by Bert Hellinger, it explores how unresolved issues and unconscious loyalties pass through generations, influencing our relationships and life choices. This approach helps bring these patterns into awareness so they can be healed.

How It Works

During a constellation session, individuals represent family members or elements of the system, allowing unseen connections and conflicts to surface. This experiential process creates a visual map of relationships, revealing blocked energies and imbalances that affect wellbeing and harmony. The goal is to restore balance by honoring the natural order of relationships.

Beyond Individual Therapy

Unlike traditional talk therapy, Family Constellations focus on systemic influences rather than just personal history. It considers the whole family lineage, acknowledging that what affects one can ripple through many. This broader perspective offers profound insights and healing that transcend the individual.

The Power of Healing

By bringing light to hidden dynamics, Family Constellations can transform long-standing challenges into opportunities for growth and freedom. It encourages compassion, acceptance, and a deeper understanding of our place within the family web—leading to emotional relief and renewed connections.
