Questions about the process
Family Constellations are a way of exploring family relationships, personal difficulties and recurring patterns. One on one sessions involve a guided process with the facilitator helping you explore your issue.
We begin by exploring what has brought you to the session and what you would like to understand. Depending on the type of session, we may use representatives,guided visualisation or other constellation methods.
The process is individual to each person. The process requires only a readiness to explore. One on one constellations differ from group constellations. For more information on the different methods and types of constellations. Visit this page
You can bring a wide range of personal concerns, including relationship difficulties, family conflict, grief, recurring patterns, feelings of not belonging or feeling stuck in life.
You don't need to have a clearly defined problem. Sometimes, simply knowing that something isn't sitting right with you is a place to begin.
You'll need a reliable internet connection, a device that allows us to communicate comfortably, and a quiet, private space where you can focus on the session without unnecessary interruptions.
Family Constellation work can bring up feelings or reflections that are important to you. There is no expectation that you must react in a particular way. You can share what you feel comfortable sharing, ask questions and let me know if you need to pause.
It can be useful to have tissues nearby in case you need them.
Yes. Couples sessions provide a space to explore relationship dynamics together, with the opportunity for both partners to be heard and to gain a different perspective.
.
In some cases, you can constellate on behalf of a child or someone who is unable to participate themselves. However there are very strict codes of ethics for this and permission must be obtained by the other party if they are not a minor.
I do not recommend this route unless absolutely necessary. The best results are from personal participation. If the issue is between you and this person, then we can work with you on it, it is not recommended or ethical to work on other's problems for them.

General Questions
You don't need to have a clearly defined problem. Sometimes, simply knowing that something isn't sitting right with you is a place to begin.
Not necessarily. Some people come for a single session to explore a particular issue, while others prefer to return to different aspects of their lives over time. You can decide what works for you.
