WHAT IS IT?
Family Constellation
Family Constellation is a therapeutic approach that aims to uncover and address hidden dynamics within a family system that may be causing emotional or psychological issues. It originated from the work of German psychotherapist Bert Hellinger and is based on the understanding that family relationships and ancestral experiences can have a profound impact on an individual’s well-being, both emotionally and psychologically. Discovering this hidden dynamic and solving the issue from the roots through counselling and other healing techniques form the main aim of this therapy.
