What are Family Constellations?
Family Constellations is a brief form of therapy. Through a session or workshop, we can express our inner images. When we think of our parents, or a situation at work, we all have inner images. Through constellations we externalise these inner images.
If you have an issue, we can constellate it. This means that we will create an image of this issue by using representatives. As kids we all played with dolls and figures and recreated stories. In constellations, we do something similar. Only, we create our own stories, our own inner images using representatives. These representatives can be other people, figures or virtual images.
First we create an image of the issue or question we have. Secondly, together with the Cecilia, you create a new image that allows a resolution to your issue. In the third step, Cecilia helps you integrate this new image.
By seeing the dynamics in front of us, we can come to new insights and bring in a solution for our problems.

What do I need to do a constellation?
For an online Family Constellation, you need three things:
- An issue or question you would like to explore
- Facts about your family
- A desired outcome
Firstly, issues can be anything that you struggle with or would like to resolve. If instead, you would like to explore something, or need help taking a difficult decision, this is also excellent for an online family constellation.
Secondly, you will need some facts about your family of origin. These are usually the things people in your family do not like to talk about: traumatic events, painful losses, abortion, crime, exclusions, …
Thirdly, it helps to know what you would like to achieve through a session. This gives a focus to the work. Also, it helps Cecilia know what direction to go for.

How Do Online Family Constellations work?
An online family constellation session or workshop is not that different from the in-person version. Cecilia will start with a conversation. Together, you will decide on what issue you want to work on and what you want out of a constellation.
Next, Cecilia will offer you a few options on how you would like to proceed. We have a few possibilities for online family constellations. Usually, we work with a specialised application; a virtual reality space. In this space, we can set up a constellation just like in a workshop. If we are in group, people can also represent different roles (for example mother, father, family members, …) in the virtual space directly.
In one-on-one sessions, Cecilia has the possibility to take the role of representatives if you want this. Alternatively, Cecilia has also different options to constellate. An example is a constellation in the mind’s eye – where the client pictures the constellation as it unfolds.
