Family (Systemic) Constellations

Often we find ourselves reacting in ways that despite all the counselling we can not change. These behaviours act as a symptom pointing to what needs to be seen and acknowledged in our ancestry. Once seen we can live our lives with a sense of freedom and support from our ancestors.

Course Summary


Developed by Bert Hellinger, Family Constellations evolved through setting up and observing constellations. He proposed that a ‘systemic conscience’, family soul or Orders of Love govern families and systems, supporting harmony, balance and growth in families or systems such as schools, organizations or communities. Conversely family constellations can identify any disruption in these orders of love creating imbalances or entanglements to the flow of love and support. This can appear as illness, relationship problems, emotional disturbances etc.

Many of the problems we are experiencing in life and in our relationships are due to the fact that we carry the burden that one or more of our ancestors were unable to resolve at the time. Looking once again at what happened to those ancestors and giving now what could not be given then, can lead to resolution and lifting of the old burden. To bring about healing we use our natural ability to resonate with the feelings of others to “bring back“ momentarily those distressed or excluded ancestors, allowing them to “relive” and “resolve” their painful episodes, undoing the present family member’s entanglement with that ancestor.

This is a method of looking at the entanglements, lack of support, no-flow of love and disharmonies within a family and the effect that has on us, ie: depression, anger or illness etc, and restoring the gifts and support of our ancestors.

1 review for Family (Systemic) Constellations

  1. Brenda Sutherland

    ‘I feel no words I have said so far have captured my deep appreciation for what you gave on the weekend.

    It was so beautifully being held in that space by all.
    Your ability to create a safe space and allow us to feel our suffering without becoming it was liberating. Thank you for your acknowledgement of struggle with the profound knowing that it is not who we are but how we have needed to cope.

    From a therapist point of view I revelled in watching you artfully move between the different spaces, situations and people.
    This process is inspiring and your ability to navigate it without controlling it is a superpower.

    Thanks so much for the constellation you gave me. I know you choose intuitively but there are so many needs and that must take skill to not feel the weight of that and rather feel the opportunity of it.

    I really appreciate you doing this work. Right now more study is not possible but thanks for holding such forums. It literally took me 26 years from hearing of this process to doing work in this way. We are ready when we are ready’. written by RS (Melbourne Therapist)
