What is Family Constellations?
Family Constellations was developed by Bert Hellinger, a German psychotherapist, who wanted to understand how many of the problems we suffer from were coming from our family system. He developed a process where these hidden family dynamics could be seen and healed, primarily by having volunteers represent what was being concealed.
Family Constellations can help us understand how we often share the suffering of family members and/or ancestors with whom we are entangled. These entanglements (or identifications) within family systems is a source of illness, emotional distress, anxiety, depression, trauma and problems in relationships, work and career.
With Family Constellations we can discover how to acknowledge this suffering differently and separate ourselves from it.
This alternative approach may help people seeking treatment view their concerns from a different perspective, and therapists may offer the family constellations approach as a treatment for issues proving difficult to treat with traditional therapy.

“When entangled (with the soul of an excluded Ancestor), you unconsciously carry the feelings, symptoms, behaviours, or hardships of an earlier member of your family system as if these were your own.”
“Remaining silent about family pain is rarely an effective strategy for healing it. The suffering will surface again at a later time, often expressing in the fears or symptoms of a later generation.”

The Process
In a typical family constellation therapy session, there is a seeker (issue holder), a facilitator, and other participants. The seeker is the person who comes to resolve an issue. The facilitator is the therapist, who directs the constellation. The other participants are unrelated people who might also be seekers in their sessions, with their own personal intentions for healing.
The Seeker’s Issue
The seeker has an issue they would like to resolve or overcome. The issue can be anything from hoarding or feeling a lack of abundance to relationship issues or compromised relationship with their mother or father.
Embodying the Family Constellation in a Group
If other people are involved in the session, the facilitator chooses different people to represent specific family members. The facilitator may also choose people to represent a group the seeker belongs to or an ideal they follow.
The facilitator then arranges the participants in a way that might be meaningful for the seeker. Everyone stays still for a time, giving the seeker time to connect with the morphogenic field and determine if the arrangement rings true for them.
