Family Constellations
What is Family Constellations?
Family Constellations is a therapeutic approach that explores the deep, often unconscious connections and patterns within our family systems. Developed by Bert Hellinger, with its roots in Zulu tribal wisdom, this powerful method allows individuals to uncover these hidden dynamics that can affect their lives, relationships, health and well-being. By addressing these family and wider systemic patterns, we can gain insight into unresolved issues, release emotional burdens, and restore balance in our lives.
Who Can Benefit from Family Constellations?
Family Constellations can be beneficial for anyone experiencing challenges related to family relationships, emotional well-being, or recurring life patterns. Whether you are struggling with unresolved family conflicts, relationship or financial issues, feeling the weight of ancestral trauma, or seeking to understand the root causes of physical or emotional issues, this work can offer a profound shift of understanding or a useful next (giant) step.
Everyone is welcome, this approach is particularly helpful for those who:
• Feel stuck in repetitive patterns or behaviours that they can’t explain or change.
• Experience unresolved grief, anger, or other strong emotions related to family.
• Struggle with relationship issues, whether within the family, with a partner, or in other significant connections.
• Seek a deeper understanding of their place in the family system and how it affects their life.

“The constellation with Lucy was really, really powerful… I got what I wanted from it: a deeper sense of freedom and a sense of putting a weight down.” Garavavati, textile worker
“Family Constellations work for me was fascinating, inspiring, kind, hopeful – all in all, really rather wonderful. There really is a magical quality to the process and your containment of the group [Lucy] enabled that to freely emerge. I’m certainly feeling freer and lighter. Also, my back pain has massively reduced, just shows what happens when we stop carrying those old, heavy loads.” Julia, yoga teacher/gardener Somerset
