What are Family Constellations?
A path to understanding the invisible dynamics in your life
Family or Systemic Constellations are a practice that allows us to explore the dynamics within the systems or communities we belong to. They can reveal relational aspects that would otherwise go unnoticed — and create meaningful change even in just one session.
Many of our emotional conflicts, relationship issues, or personal blockages are rooted in unresolved experiences from previous generations. In Family Constellations, we explore these unconscious patterns and look at them with respect, opening a movement toward reconciliation and release.
The method was developed by Bert Hellinger, who dedicated his life to studying affective orders and the places of strength within the systems we belong to. It can be applied to both external systems (family, work…) and internal ones (parts of oneself).
Benefits of Family Constellations
- Free yourself from recurring patterns in your life.
- Understand the origin of personal, emotional, or relational conflicts.
- Heal your bond with your family of origin from a calmer and more respectful place.
- Reframe painful experiences within a healthier order.
- Feel more connected to life and to your own vital force.
- Build healthier and more balanced relationships.
- Open yourself to greater inner peace and clarity for decision-making.
Family Constellations offer a new and transformative perspective, capable of reaching places that more rational therapies cannot.

What are the sessions like?
A lived exploration
Sessions begin with an explanation of the issue you want to work on, and together we inquire into its possible systemic implications.
Group sessions
In group sessions, participants are chosen to represent members of the client’s system and are placed in the room. The representatives feel impulses to move that they don’t recognize as their own and follow them. From the images that emerge, the issue becomes clearer and steps toward resolution can appear.
In these group settings, a resonance occurs among all participants. Even those who attend only as representatives may notice personal changes from each session.
Individual sessions
The same process takes place in individual sessions, but the movements happen just between the two of us. This format is more intimate and specific, allowing us to directly address the issue you want to explore. Sometimes more than one session may be needed to cover all the implications of a theme.
Ongoing accompaniment
We can also work in a continuous process with the tool of Family Constellations, exploring a different aspect each week. This allows for a deeper look at your family system or any theme you wish to address.
