Systemic & Family Constellations

I facilitate Systemic and Family Constellations, both in-person in Stockholm and online.

Constellations are a powerful and subtle way of bringing to light hidden dynamics that affect systems, organizations, and families (and the world at large). Constellations provide an elegant way to see what needs to be seen in a system, and a path to resolve what is ready to be resolved.

How Constellations Work

A client will typically have an issue they are experiencing in their lives, often with a repetitive pattern. This could be anything ranging from a emotional challenge, a business or money difficulty, to physical symptoms or illness. After a brief interview with the facilitator, we meet with a group of volunteers, who will observe the constellation and represent roles in the system that is being explored.

As we begin the constellation, the representatives do not know who or what they are representing. They don’t know any details of the issue being explored either. When the constellation begins, everything simply “comes” to them in the form of sensations, emotions, even thoughts and memories. My facilitation of constellation is double-blind, meaning that no one, including myself, knows who is representing who in the beginning of the constellation.

Over 1-2 hours, systemic dynamics come to the surface that are manifestations of denied or excluded experience. Slowly but surely, the constellation provides a space for the system to acknowledge what is, and to include what has been excluded for decades.

While constellations are not a magic bullet, they provide ways to address systemic effects that are beyond the reach of many other approaches and modalities. Clients (as well as observers and representatives) often describe how life will change spontaneously and without effort after a constellation.

Schedule a Constellation

Reach out if you would like to be a client in a constellation.

And if you would like to take part in a constellation as a representative, let me know of your interest. I’ll add you list of participant pool. You’ll receive emails when constellations are upcoming. No previous experience or skills are necessary.

More Information

For more information on constellations, see the work of Bert Hellinger. His books Love’s Hidden Symmetry and Acknowledging What Is are good places to start.
