THE PHENOMENOLOGICAL FAMILY SYSTEMS THERAPY OF BERT HELLINGER
Considered one of the most innovative psychotherapists in the world today, Bert Hellinger has revolutionized the heart
and soul of family systems group therapy. His phenomenological approach to healing uses "Family Constellations" to expose
the hidden, and often destructive, dynamics in family systems. With deep respect for what he terms, "the Orders of Love,"
possible solutions and healing resources can be implemented. Hellinger's approach to family therapy is practiced in more
than 25 countries around the world. For further information about Hellinger and his publications, visit his Web site:
www.hellinger.com/international/english/index.shtml. A Family Constellation is a 60-minute group process that has the power to heal generations of suffering and unhappiness.
This process allows people to untangle themselves from unconscious loyalties and offers a profound, concrete, and lasting solution.
Through this significantly experiential workshop, you will be:
 | introduced to Hellinger's phenomenological approach to family systems
group therapy, its principles, and theoretical understandings;
|
 | able to identify the theoretical differences between Hellinger's work and
other models of group and family systems therapy;
|
 | able to personally experience Family Constellation Work, either as
clients, participants, or observers; and
|
 | able to identify ways that Hellinger's family systems therapy can be
implemented in clinical practices with groups, couples, or individuals.

Workshop: Breaking
the Cycle of Family Pain
Sometimes our way of being
connected in our family is to suffer like those who came before us.
When, for example, theres been a painful event in one generation,
someone in a later generation may attempt to carry its weight, taking on
the suffering of a parent, grandparent, sibling, aunt or uncle.
Illnesses, depression, anxiety, recurrent fears, addictions, aloneness
and failed relationships can all be forms of this unspoken family
loyalty. Constellation Work allows us to break
unconscious patterns and reestablish our vital strength, tranquility and
dignity.
How it works:
Representatives from the group are chosen in place of actual family
members. Hidden loyalties within the family system are then brought
to the surface. As movements of peace and reconciliation arise, the
genuine love
and strength in a family can begin to flow in a healthy way. Both
participants and observers can experience the profound effects of
this work.
