Family Contellations

How does this therapy work?

Family Constellations aims to energetically resolve the negative effects and potentially destructive behaviors within our families and family lineages. We are not only born into families where we inherit biological genes and systems of beliefs, but we also act, pattern, and react from our family systems. Family constellations suggest that individuals might unconsciously “adopt” these concerns as a way of helping ancestral family members to cope; in constellation language we call this the crazy love of children. Present-day problems and difficulties may be influenced by traumas suffered in previous generations of the family, even if those affected now are unaware of the original event in the past.


Bert Hellinger, who created this therapy, refers to Systemic Entanglements as the relationship between present and past problems that are not caused by our own direct personal experience. It is said to occur when unresolved traumas have afflicted a family through an event such as murder, suicide, death of a mother in childbirth, early death of a parent or sibling, war, natural disaster, emigration, addiction, or abuse. Resolution and/or closure is brought about through a constellation process. This therapy can be done with you and Hemla in a one-on-one session, here the constellation is done using colored felt cut outs to act as representations for family members.

 

Hemla also facilitates group constellations. In group situations, the constellation is done with Hemla, the client, and other representatives working together as a whole to resolve the issue for the client.

We use Organizational Constellations in companies and within organizations to heal and enhance better work relationships. Systemic entanglements here refer to situations where there have been mergers, acquisitions, or when people are let go and they are still holding the tension and anger of it. It can be used when there is a breakdown in communication or complications in the dynamics between people in the organization. Organizational constellations can be used to clear the entanglements within these structures since these entanglements can bring disruption and other issues within an organization or company.
