Setareh Therapy - Registered Member of the Systems Constellations Association of Southern Africa, offering in-person and online systemic constellations and holistic healing sessions in Cape Town, South Africa. Available for group sessions in person in Cape Town and worldwide via Zoom.

What is Systemic Family Constellation?

Systemic Family Constellation is a powerful therapeutic approach that supports deep insight, emotional release, and meaningful inner movement by revealing hidden dynamics within:

  • Family systems
  • Relationships
  • Organizations and work life
  • Inner parts and unconscious personal patterns
  • Wider life themes such as money blocks, direction, goals, and life transitions

The constellation process is grounded in somatic experience, present-moment awareness, systemic principles, and clear facilitation with consent.

Sessions can take place online or in person, depending on what best supports the client.

Individual Constellation

In a 90-minute one-on-one session, I use tools like your genogram with dolls, or floor markers to help explore your personal and family system. Sometimes, I step in as a representative to support the process if needed.

FAQ

Most frequent questions about family constellation

 Absolutely not. Constellations work with representations (like dolls or group participants), so you can explore and heal dynamics privately without direct family involvement. This addresses the common misunderstanding that it requires family confrontation, which can deter people from trying it.

Yes, with modern tools and skilled facilitation, online constellations maintain the same depth and impact. A common doubt is that virtual formats lack “energy,” but many clients report equally profound experiences.

 No, representatives are not role-playing or acting out scripted parts. Instead, they stand in as placeholders for family members, elements, or dynamics, and simply report their authentic, spontaneous bodily sensations, emotions, or perceptions that arise in the “knowing field” of the system.
