SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATION WORK
What your analytical mind cannot reach alone
Systemic Constellation work is an embodied practice for making the invisible visible. The hidden dynamics shaping your family, your work, your relationships, and your decisions become accessible, workable, and possible to shift.
WHAT SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATION WORK IS
A body-based practice rooted in over five decades of research and application.
Developed by Bert Hellinger, System Constellation work operates on the insight that every system, whether a family, an organization, or a personal history, has its own hidden architecture. When elements of that system go unacknowledged, the architecture buckles. Patterns repeat. People get stuck.
Constellation work gives form to those hidden elements. Through embodied representation and careful facilitation, you see the actual structure of a situation, no teh story you have been telling about it.
What emerges consistently surprises people. Information surfaces that no amount of thinking could have produced.
The conscious mind accounts for roughly 10% of what drives behavior adn decision-making. The remianing 90% operates below awareness, shaped by loyalties, exclusions, and experiences that often predate your own life.
Constellation work accesses that 90%. Not through analysis, but through the body, the field, and the colective intelligence of a group.
The result is not insight as an idea. It is insight as a felt shift, one your nervous system registers before your thinking mind catches up.

HOW IT WORKS
Three ways to participate.
In a Constellation session, everyone in the room has a role. All three are meaningful. All three offer their own form of insight.
01
Issue Holder
You bring a question or situation. Your constellation is facilitated, revealing the hidden dynamics at work in your system, whether family, organizational, or relational. This is the primary participant role.
02
Witness
You hold space for others while gaining insight into your own patterns. Witnessing another’s constellation often surfaces something directly relevant to your own life.
03
Representative
You embody a family member, an element of a system, or an aspect of someone’s situation. Representatives consistently report this as one of the most powerful experiences available in the work.
WHAT PEOPLE BRING
Constellation work extends to any system.
Family is where the work began. It has since extended to organizational life, leadership, personal decisions, and life direction. Any situation with a system and a question is workable here.
Family Systems
Inherited patterns, generational trauma, unspoken loyalties, estangements, and the echoes of experiences that predate your own life.
Organizational Dynamics
Hidden loyalties within teams, leadership patterns, founding traumas, and the invisible forces that shape culture and performance.
Life Direction and Decisions
Where to place your energy. Which direction to move toward. What is keeping you in a pattern you are ready to leave.
Relational Patterns
Recurring dynamics in relationships, the patterns that follow you across contexts, and what in your system is driving them.
THE HIDDEN ARCHITECTURE
We carry more than our own experience.
Every family and community carries its own invisible architecture. The stories, losses, and loyalties that shape how love and life flow through generations.
When those experiences go unacknowledged, they do not disappear. They surface in the next generation as patterns: anxiety, financial struggle, difficulty trusting, over-responsibility, restlessness.
Constellation work brings those hidden elements into view. What has lived in shadow becomes visible. And what becomes visible becomes workable.
Through this work, you can:
- Untangle yourself from inherited patterns not yours to carry
- Heal generational trauma passed through your lineage
- Release what keeps you in repetitive relational patterns
- Find greater ease in your life and decisions
- Reclaim a fuller expression of who you are
- Experience belonging in a more authentic way
FROM PARTICIPANTS
“Clare’s insight, patience and sensitivity made for a very moving Constellation experience, one that was incredibly creative, emotional, and transformative. All of us were held by the quiet and deep intuition of Clare.”
ANAMYN TUROWSKI
“This experience supported me in getting more clarity in some of the areas of my business I had been struggling in. With practical, tangible tools and processes, Clare led the group expertly. I’ll be back :)”
JOELLE LYDON, COACH
“Clare made the space feel open, safe, and welcoming for exploration. By the end all of us felt a deep connection to one another. I would recommend it to any of my friends and family.”
BECCA PROPER
“I attended Clare’s Emergence Lab with some reluctance, not knowing what to expect and a little fearful of the vulnerability it would require. I’m glad I pushed through, because wow, more than an experience, it was a breakthrough. My writing practice is taking on a new shape as I learn to sit in the possibility rather than just the pressure to perform.”
MACKENZIE, WRITER
“Clare created a safe, clean, beautiful environment where all the participants could feel welcome to participate. I strongly recommend Clare’s Constellations to anyone looking to understand their experience in a new way.”
KAZU OHASHI, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS – OHASHI METHOD
“Clare is a wonderful facilitator who meets people where they are with care, curiosity and tenderness. For me, this was a new experience and I felt comforted by her openness and was able to fully trust the process. I felt that I could dive deep into personal work and had a safe, sweet community for support. I will definitely attend any future workshops “
ASHLEY HYDE, PROGRAM MANAGER
“The experience was incredibly impactful, honestly, more so than any traditional business coaching I’ve done, because it addressed what’s underneath the “how-to.” During the workshop different participants embodied aspects of my business…watching these dynamics play out in real time was both surprising and deeply revealing. If you’re someone who feels stuck in ways that strategy alone hasn’t solved, Clare’s work offers something profound.”
SUSANNA KEARNEY, ARTIST & COACH
“I had zero experience with the constellation process before my session with Clare. I found the process to be a completely organic unfolding of my subconscious relationship with money and my lineage. Clare was skillful at guiding my experience. It was like having a tour guide for a spontaneous inner tour. I found myself feeling a profound sense of having done some heavy emotional lifting, and yet it was all so effortless. I highly recommend the investment for anyone who is ready to move beyond the conscious level of figuring stuff out and is willing to get down to the more impactful inner work.“
KENNITH SCOTT, FOUNDER, TRANSFORMATION COACHING
“Clare is a fabulous facilitator of Constellations. She is incredibly knowledgeable about psychology and understands how different parts of us interact. She’s also deeply intuitive and can sense when something is complete versus when further exploration is needed. She creates a safe space for all of the parts of us to show up that wish to be acknowledged during the Constellation. Her warm, non-judgmental personality put me at ease right away and helped me go deeper within to excavate that which wished to be explored. I would recommend Clare to anyone – she is wonderful!”
