About Family Constellations
Family Constellations is a brief, solution-focused therapy used to explore challenges you are having in your life. You choose a topic then use the Family Constellations process to gain insights into the situation, what is needed for it to resolve and how you can move forward.
It’s a powerful process that looks at the whole family system to explore if there are any unresolved issues that you are entangled with which are impacting you adversely and limiting your ability to succeed in relation to your chosen topic.
Any entanglements that do exist can be resolved freeing you to move forward and creating greater peace and harmony within your family system.

Understanding intergenerational trauma
Science now shows that the unresolved traumas of our ancestors gets passed along to future generations through changes in the DNA and how it is read within our bodies. Stress and traumas that have not been resolved result in alterations to the chemical tags attached to the DNA that turn genes on or off, which affect what will be expressed within that person. So you can be born with a tendency towards fear, anxiety, depression, etc as a result of the unresolved stress and trauma passed through the family line. This stress and trauma can be healed and released so it no longer affects you, your children and grandchildren. Family Constellations can help us achieve this and stop the cycle. We can be free and healthy and pass this on to the future generations, so they feel strong, supported and capable of becoming all that they can be.
