FAQ

Family Constellations is a method based on the idea that family systems carry unresolved patterns across generations. By revealing hidden dynamics, it helps address psychological and relational problems in your life.
It works like this: people stand in as representatives for your family members. They access the Knowing Field that contains all information about past and present. As representatives move and speak, ancestral patterns and family entanglements become visible. You see what’s been hidden, what’s been passed down across generations. Often, resolution and healing unfold during or shortly after the session. Sometimes deeper integration takes time.

Family Constellations works differently to traditional therapy. Rather than diving into your personal thoughts and history, we zoom out to see your whole family system: the hidden loyalties, ancestral patterns, and unspoken entanglements that actually shape your life.
Instead of talking through problems for months or years, we use representatives to physically show family dynamics. You see the pattern, you feel the shift—often in a single session.
Compare it to other approaches: Psychoanalysis takes years exploring childhood unconsciously; CBT gives you thought-reframing homework; Person-centred therapy gently guides you to find your own answers. All valuable.
But constellations reveal the system itself: why you’re attracted to certain people, why you repeat patterns, why decisions feel stuck. That’s the difference. We work not only with your own feelings but with emotions of other members of the system. For example, a woman had insomnia, after we revealed dynamics between her and her father, after we worked with her father’s feelings and dreams, she started to sleep after 5 sleepless months.

While Family Constellations focuses on our ancestors and patterns we inherit from our family system, Universal Therapy by Leonid Talpis takes a much broader, faster approach. It doesn’t just look at your lineage, it looks at your personal psychology, your childhood, and even soul dynamics or past life experiences.
The key difference is how we begin. In Constellations, people represent your family members to reveal where love may be blocked. In Universal Therapy, we use tools like body testing to trace the root of an issue back to the moment it formed. If Constellations are about honouring the past to find peace, Universal Therapy is about quickly “unplugging” from old

While hypnotherapy works on your subconscious mind to shift personal habits or beliefs, Family Constellations looks at the “invisible threads” that connect you to your family history.
The main difference is the focus: hypnotherapy is an internal process aimed at your individual mindset. Constellations is a systemic approach that uncovers inherited patterns—the things you carry that might not actually belong to you. One helps you re-code your own thoughts; the other untangles you from the stories of your ancestors so you can finally move forward as yourself.

Neither, really, and both. We blend therapeutic insight with coaching, Gestalt therapy, body-based work, Quantum Psychology, and Theta Healing, creating an integrative space where you can connect with the root causes of what’s holding you back and release them. It’s more systemic and embodies traditional talk therapy.

Business Constellations is systemic work applied to organisational challenges, team dynamics, leadership blocks, and business relationship issues. We use the same representative method to reveal patterns within teams, companies, and professional systems. So you can see what’s blocking progress and shift it.

Think of your business or career as a living organism. Just like a family, a company has its own “invisible dynamics” that either propel it forward or keep it stuck. An Organisational Constellation allows us to map out your entire professional landscape, including your team, your board, or even your personal relationship with concepts like “Success” or “Money.” It quickly reveals why a project might be stalling or why leadership feels strained, identifying exactly where the block is in your growth. Instead of months of traditional consulting, we get to the heart of the issue in just one or two sessions. It’s an essential tool for founders and executives who need an objective, “birds-eye” view to make better strategic decisions.

Most people feel a shift almost immediately: a sense of relief, clearer decision-making, or a sudden “unblocking” in a relationship. While the initial insight is often instant, the deeper changes tend to settle in over the following weeks. It’s about moving from a place of heaviness to one of genuine peace.

Family Constellations can address a wide range of systemic issues:
Relationships: Partner conflicts, infidelity, difficulty receiving support, power and authority struggles, narcissistic or abusive relationships, codependency, inherited relationship patterns.
Money and Career: Business blocks, burnout, fear of success or failure, earning blocks, saving difficulties, money patterns and limiting beliefs.
Purpose: Decision-making difficulties, leadership struggles, finding your direction, unclear sense of purpose, career confusion.
Mental Health and Wellbeing: Chronic stress, burnout, depression, anxiety, unresolved grief and loss, family conflicts, generational traumas.
Repeating Patterns: Cycles that feel stuck, recurring life scenarios, professional or personal system conflicts.

Yes, for many traumas. Constellations can help process family trauma, ancestral wounds, and inherited grief. However, for active trauma or severe mental health crises, this isn’t a substitute for clinical trauma therapy. If you have complex trauma, discuss this during our free 10-minute discovery call.

Yes. We explore the psychological and systemic patterns connected to physical symptoms.  The body often carries the weight of unresolved family trauma. This complements medical care, it doesn’t replace it. Always consult your healthcare provider for diagnosis and treatment.

Yes. Whether it’s repeating attraction patterns, difficulty with intimacy, loneliness, codependency, or recovering from emotional or sexual abuse, constellations reveal what’s really happening beneath the surface. Often, your current relationship struggle echoes something from your family of origin: a loyalty, a wound, a belief you picked up early. Once you see that connection, you can change it.

Yes. Recovering from a narcissist or a toxic partner isn’t a standard breakup. It’s a process of reclaiming who you are. It’s incredibly draining and often leaves you feeling like a shadow of your former self.
We focus on clearing the “mental fog” and breaking the obsessive loops that keep you stuck. By using specific therapy tools, we’ll help you reset your boundaries and strengthen your sense of self. The goal isn’t just to move on; it’s to ensure you never find yourself in that same cycle again.

Yes. Whether you prefer to come individually to work on a partnership or you are seeking couples therapy together, we look far beneath the surface of your disputes. Traditional marriage counselling often focuses purely on communication, but we provide deep therapy for relationship problems by uncovering hidden family loyalties, inherited wounds, or childhood beliefs. This approach is very effective for complex issues, including infidelity therapy, helping both partners understand the true systemic root of the crisis.

Yes. Privacy is the foundation of everything we do. Whether we meet online or in person, our sessions are strictly private. I do not share your details or your story with anyone. In group sessions, all participants agree to respect each other’s privacy, what is shared in the room stays in the room. You can feel completely secure knowing your personal work is protected.

Anyone looking to break through persistent life patterns, improve relationships, or find clarity during a transition. If you are over 18 and ready to resolve a specific issue (be it professional or personal), we can work through it together. You don’t have to navigate these problems alone.

Yes, absolutely. Family Constellations complements traditional therapy very well. While your therapist might focus on your personal history, we look at the broader family system.  Both approaches support your healing from different angles. Many clients find that doing both provides a more complete path to healing.

Yes. While a single session can be life-changing, many clients return to look at different areas of their life, such as career, health, or family dynamics. Each session layers upon the last, helping you move toward a deeper, more permanent systemic shift.

Yes, we are located near Westfield London and are easily accessible from across Central and West London. If you are coming by Underground, it is a short walk from either Shepherd’s Bush Market station on the Hammersmith & City line or Shepherd’s Bush station on the Central line and Overground. 

I specialise in Systemic Constellations because of their precision and pace.
As a client, I explored many psychotherapy approaches and saw how traditional talk therapy often circles issues for years with slow or no progress. That’s why, when I saw the immediate results from literally one session of Family Constellations, I was very impressed. I realised I had found the approach I wanted to be treated with. For almost five years, I have witnessed how constellations change the lives of my friends.
Therefore, I started facilitating them myself. I chose this method for its fast, effective, and transformative results.
