A therapeutic approach designed by Bert Hellinger, to help reveal the hidden dynamics in a family or relationship is named as Family Constellation. It is generally meant to address any stressors impacting any relationships and heal them. It brings the unseen into the seen.

It may help people seek treatment from a different perspective for issues proving difficult to treat with traditional therapy.

The Therapy of Family Constellation

A Family Constellation sessions can be conducted on a one-to-one basis and it can al be conducted between a group of individuals who are not related. The person seeking resolution of an issue, chooses these representatives and places them into position as members of the individual’s family.

The individuals standing in as members of the family are believed to be able to feel and experience the emotions of the person whose role they have taken on, which is said to be felt energetically by members of the group, as they connect to the morphogenic field. They often report an awareness of specific emotions and feelings directly related to the individual’s situation and can be clearly connected to the issue being addressed.
