Family Constellations

While traditional talk therapy often explores the personal narrative – your thoughts, emotions and experiences – Family Constellations works on a systemic and ancestral level. It firmly acknowledges the context from which you come, revealing the unconscious entanglements you may carry from your family system which dissolves the over-identification with your experiences and issues.

Constellations don’t rely on lengthy dialogue or analysis. It is an experiential process which uses embodied representation, somatic awareness and intuitive knowing to access deeper truths that your conscious mind may not have access to. Many people find that FC complements other therapies beautifully, especially when they’ve felt ‘stuck’ despite years of inner work.

People come to this work for many reasons, some including:

• Relationship challenges (with partners, parents, children, friends etc.)

• Anxiety, depression or emotional heaviness without a clear cause

• Chronic illness of physical symptoms

• Career or creative blocks

• Issues around money, addiction

• Repetitive life patterns and behaviours that don’t seem to be shifting

• Grief, loss or challenging family history

• Feeling out of place, disconnected or the feeling of ‘carrying too much’

If you’re seeking clarity, peace, deeper belonging and the capacity to live your life in full, this work may be for you.

No. While some background can be helpful, it’s not necessary. The Knowing Field reveals what’s ready to be seen, often independent of conscious information. You do not need to know your ancestry or even be in close contact with family for the process to work.

Yes. This work is especially supportive in those cases. Even if your family history is unclear or fragmented, your connection to the ancestral field remains intact. The constellation work can access and honour truths that were lost, hidden or never spoken, releasing their unconscious control over your life, emotions and choices.

It’s both, and neither. Family Constellations is not affiliated with any religion or dogma. It draws from psychology, somatic awareness, indigenous wisdom and the mystery of the soul. While some experience it as deeply spiritual, others value if for its tangible, practical and grounding clarity.  You are free to meet the work from wherever you are.

Often just one session can bring powerful shifts. Family Constellations is solutions-oriented, meaning one session is whole and complete within itself. Some issues are more complex and entangled than others so generally speaking, one to five sessions are enough to move through a process so you may live your life in alignment with the truth of who you are, connected to belonging, love and empowerment.

Unlike traditional therapy, Family Constellations is not typically done weekly. Some clients return every few months for additional sessions as new layers arise.

The work is deep, and the systemic shifts often continues to move and integrate over time.

Yes. Whether in-person or online, in a group or one-to-one setting, the Knowing Field is not bound by physical space. Online sessions – both private and group – are just as effective, using visual representations, guided imagery or interactive tools. Many clients feel just as moved and connected as they would in a physical space.
