Connecting through Constellations

"I’ve probably been in therapy 15 years of my life,
you know what I mean, and never got the healing
that I could get in a family constellation. 
I mean totally beyond my imagination.
​I’m still in awe of the process.” 
​~ Jack ~
Picture
We are in relationship/connected with everyone and everything. Sometimes our experiences in life have us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others. Healing through Connecting Constellations™ (HCC) supports you in reconnecting. It is held in a very sacred, compassionate, and gentle energetic space. Each HCC experience provides a deeper, more profound experience. Family members do not need to be present.

HCC can be done in a private session, on Zoom or over the phone, or in a group workshop setting. In a private session, figurines or foam footprints are used as representatives for your family. In a workshop, seminar, or group setting, participants are used as representatives. ​

Importance of Sharing this Work

I was working with a client with severe chronic pain who had suicidal ideation for six years. She is a physical, sexual, and emotional abuse survivor. Those who abused her were members of her family of origin. I spent two years learning her story. She would concentrate on the present issues mostly and I was at a loss as to what else to do for her. I sat down with her one day in session, explained the constellation work, and told her I believed it could help. She agreed to try it. 

My client’s first constellation included her husband, herself, and two sons. She wanted to tackle some of the issues with the challenges at home and how she was being treated. She began by going to each of her current family members and telling her feelings. She then said, “I leave your responsibilities to you. I cannot take them on anymore.” 

With each statement, she felt a bit of relief. At the end of the constellation, she chose a second figurine for herself. She placed it in front of the figurine she had already selected for herself. This allowed her to speak to her survivor self, the self that had kept her alive through extremely difficult times. She was invited to say, “Thank you for helping me to survive for so long. Thank you.” She paused, and the woman that had had a suicide plan for six years stated, “But I want to learn to live not just to survive. I want to learn to live. I want to get to know who I am.”

This is the power of Healing through Connecting™ Constellations for an individual. And there is also a ripple effect that happens within the family system. I have dozens of stories about that as well. 
  • ​It is a modality that changes lives and should be shared with the world.
    ​
  • ​I want people to know they are not alone in their challenges with their families, themselves, and work (any relationship or system).

  • I want people to know it can get better. And I want people to know someone is here to support them compassionately and non-judgmentally in a sacred and safe place.
