• What is Family Constellations?

  Family Constellations was developed by the German Bert Hellinger (1925 - 2019) after he became a psychotherapist and group therapist. The wisdom of the Zulu People has greatly influenced this therapeutic approach, while Hellinger was in Africa as a missionary for the catholic church. He found that including the ancestors in any healing process was creating profound change in people. 

  In Family Constellations we bring our inner view of our family system (or any other system we are part of) out onto a defined space, either using humans (to stand in the representations of people and aspects), figurines or floor markers. If other people are involved, those who stand in representations of parts of the focus client's system will simply feel into their bodies and feed back to the facilitator what is going on for them. The facilitator guides gently and intuitively through the process until the focus client can see and understand more.

• Can I take part with a diagnosed mental health issue?

  In order to clarify this, please get in touch with Silvia before you book your place. Her phone number: +447894434295 (or email silvia.siret@gmail.com). There are just a couple of possible reasons why Silvia would not recommend a family constellation.
