48-Hours International Gathering 16-18 October 2026
Experiential Deep-Dives and Systemic Precision
Sexuality, Gender & Relationships
The Unspoken Field Through a Systemic Lens
In the constellation field, we spend endless hours exploring belonging, connection,
and transgenerational trauma.
Yet when issues of intimacy, deep sexual friction, gender identity,
boundary violations, taboo desires, or complex relationship dynamics enter the room,
even experienced facilitators often feel a subtle shift, a hesitation,
a lack of clear language, or an unmet need for deeper precision.
Sexuality, gender, and relationships are lived in the body and structured by the system.
They are the ultimate arenas of life, power, secrecy, and truth,
yet they remain largely unspoken on the main stages of our systemic community.

This October ( 16-18 ), we are opening the door to what usually stays in the shadows.
Sexuality, gender, and relationships are lived in the body and structured by the system.
They are the ultimate arenas of life, power, secrecy, and truth,
yet they remain largely unspoken on the main stages of our systemic community.


WHY THIS GATHERING MATTERS

Three Intertwined Fields. One Powerful Space.
Clients bring their whole selves into our practice.
They arrive with real-world complexities across all three dimensions:
  • Sexuality: Mismatched desire, physical boundaries, sexual shame, secrecy,
    and the systemic forces behind intimacy.
  • Gender: Inherited gender roles, power dynamics, identity exploration,
    and the impact of generational expectations.
  • Relationships: Unspoken loyalties, repeating partnership patterns, conflict, distance,
    and the search for true connection.
Avoiding or treating these themes with excessive caution is no longer an option.
This 48-hour gathering fills a vital knowledge gap, equipping facilitators to stand firmly
in the room with whatever emerges.

WHAT YOU WILL GAIN

  • Bridge the Knowledge Gap: Shift from hesitation to systemic confidence
    when charged issues of sexuality, gender, or relationships surface in your work.
  • Integrate Body and System: Discover how transgenerational patterns
    directly shape desire, gender identity, and relational boundaries.
  • Expand Your Professional Vocabulary: Learn directly from international practitioners
    working at the intersection of systemic constellations, gender, sexuality, and relationships.
  • Personal & Clinical Capacity: Gain greater internal clarity and presence to hold complex,
    unspoken dynamics without pulling back.

WHAT MAKES THIS EXPERIENCE DIFFERENT?

  • Experiential & Clinical Depth: Grounded systemic perspectives that you can translate
    directly into your practice, combined with space for your own internal resonance.
  • Complete Access: Full recordings of every session will be available to all
    registered participants after the gathering.
Step into the Full Spectrum of the Field.
Join ISCA and facilitators from around the globe for this 48-hour gathering
that brings sexuality, gender, and relationships into clear, courageous light.

Expanding perspectives
Close

After speaking a bit about the origins of constellations work in relationship to the themes of the conference,
I will show some cases in which my own experience (monogamy, open relationships, being part of a throuple for 5 years and other non-traditional relationship forms) facilitates the creation of new constellation formats.

Then I will guide the participants through a few creative experiential practical exercises / rituals in which we explore our beliefs'identifications concerning our own gender.

- increased awareness about how gender determines your point of point of view- increased historical awareness of development of constellation work- deepened awaerenss of your own gender identity and construction
about Daan
Close

I started studying shamanism in the mid nineteen eighties, I was trained by traveling with various teachers from different backgrounds (Lakota, Southern Ute, Sami) and by the time I met family constellation in the late nineties I was teaching contemporary shamanism internationally.

Bert Hellinger and I engaged in a long and fruitful exchange about the nature of constellations from the perspective of shamanism, which led to my book 'Images of the Soul', for which he wrote the introduction.
Gradually I developed a systemic way of work I call 'Systemic Ritual', in which elements of classic family constellation and shamanic practice blend together in a new synthesis.

I have been leading seminars and training groups in Systemic Ritual worldwide.

Ali Mezey (US)
Working with Sexuality in Constellation Practice: Three Essential Sensibilities for Facilitators
Close

Sexuality often underlies issues of intimacy, shame, trauma, addiction, relationship conflict, identity, and belonging, yet many facilitators receive little training in working with it directly.

In this interactive workshop, Ali Mezey draws on more than fifteen years specializing in sexuality and sexual healing to explore three essential sensibilities: recognizing our own sexual biases, learning to trust what the client's body already knows beyond narrative and explanation, and maintaining an awareness of the client's intrinsic wholeness, even when trauma, shame, or fragmentation are present.

Through discussion, demonstration, and experiential exercises, participants will gain practical tools for approaching sexual themes with greater confidence, nuance, and care in Constellation Work and related helping professions.

- Develop greater confidence and competence when sexual themes arise in constellation work, whether explicitly or beneath the presenting issue.- Discover how attending to the body's intelligence can reveal important information that may not be available through story, analysis, or interpretation alone.- Learn how holding an orientation toward intrinsic wholeness can support healing, agency, and integration, even in the presence of trauma, shame, or deeply entrenched patterns.
about Ali
Close

Ali's work has always begun with bodies. For over 40 years, she has helped thousands of people experience themselves more fully as bodies. A Master Bodyworker, Family Constellation facilitator, Sexologist, educator, media maker, and creator of Personal Geometry®, her work is grounded in the reality of body intelligence.

Ali first developed ProprioMassage®, a hands-on therapeutic method that works directly with body intelligence to restore sensational awareness and reorganize the body's internal maps toward greater vitality, freedom, and wholeness. Over the past fifteen years, she has brought that same body-first approach to the field of sexuality, integrating many of the principles and practices of Family Constellation Work into a pioneering approach that helps people reveal and transform the unconscious body maps underlying sexual challenges.
Personal Geometry® emerged from her work in leading Los Angeles rehabilitation centers, including the Center for Healthy Sex, where she needed an approach that could quickly, safely, and effectively reveal the unconscious body maps underlying sexual trauma, compulsivity, dysfunction, shame, and relational distress. Using the innate language of spatial relationships, Personal Geometry® reveals what conscious thought often can't, making unconscious body maps visible, experiential, and ultimately changeable.
Based in Los Angeles, Ali works with clients and students around the world, teaches Personal Geometry® to practitioners, presents at professional conferences, and hosts The Brilliant Body Podcast, where she continues to explore, articulate, and advocate for body intelligence. In 2016, she produced and directed the five-film series Re-Thinking Illness: A Transgenerational Approach, featuring renowned Family Constellation facilitator Stephan Hausner.

How to work with child sexual abuse issues to allow adults to live in the radiance of their essence.
Close

How can one find empowerment and fulfillment in sexual and other relationships when one is entangled with sexual dynamics of child sexual abuse, sexual assault, rape in war, or cultural or social pressures that suppress one’s voice?

These perpetrator-victim dynamics can stem from one’s own life or from that of the ancestors.
Learn simple exercises to help reveal unacknowledged ancestral traumas and/or hidden personality fragments that impact one’s sexuality and sexual relationships.
The exercises are key to revealing the patterns that underly a person’s connections to sexuality and sexual relationships.
Hidden personality fragments that were too difficult to process in childhood can be “seen” in constellations.
Hidden feelings such as shame, fear, and anger, given representation allow the voice or the full essence of the individual in all aspects of life, including sexuality, to emerge.

You will learn that one of the impacts of child sexual abuse might be personality fragmentation.You will find methods to offer to your clients that have little memory or emotion around child sexual abuse.You will learn that the voice, the essence of someone, suppressed by child sexual abuse, can be unlocked.
about Anni
Close

Anni Mukkala-Stinn has been a Hellinger-trained constellator since 2008.

She lives in Edmonton, Canada on Treaty Six Territory, ancestral lands of the Cree, Anishinaabe, Blackfoot, Métis, Dene, and Nakota Sioux people.
Her own ancestry is from Finland and includes ancestry from the indigenous Sami peoples.
In the 1800s, ancestors fled hunger and conscription into the Russian army to come to the USA and later to Canada to take up promises from colonial propaganda of "free" land.
This free land was taken by Canada as indigenous peoples, living on these lands for millennia, were forced into reservations.
Thus, the acknowledgement of perpetrator-victim dynamics, as in her family from both settler and indigenous peoples, and in the clashing worldviews, is for Anni vital to any movements forward in life.

Anni’s work with child sexual abuse began in 1999 when she started local support groups.
She immediately focused on CSA when she began to constellate.
She works from personal history of child sexual abuse that colours her work with a deep compassion and understanding.

Her work is gentle and offers those who work with her an experience of resonance that captures the inclusivity of all that happens in our lives within a sphere of love and radiance.
She regularly offers advanced training on working with child sexual abuse issues.

At heart, Anni is an educator. Her love of educating is complemented by her love of history, of social dynamics in play today and in history, and of English literature.
She is an avid cook and loves all things horticulture. Her world view includes the philosophy that all things are sentient beings.
Not only animals and plants but the earth itself.
She often sees the elements of earth, fire, water, and air enter the field in her constellation work as parts of the mystical resolution process.

Between two homes : sexuality, gender, and identity between cultures
Close

When living between two cultural systems, the body and sexual-gender identity become a field where two worlds meet — sometimes in harmony, often in silence.

This workshop explores, through a systemic lens, the unspoken loyalties passed between generations: what we absorbed from family and culture regarding the body, sexuality, and gender roles, and what we absorbed from the surrounding society — and where these collide or meet.
Participants will engage in live constellation processes addressing personal, familial, and cultural loyalties around sexuality and gender, facilitated with sensitivity to multicultural contexts.

Learning outcomes — participants will be able to:

  • Recognize unspoken family and cultural loyalties shaping their views on body, sexuality, and gender
  • Identify points of tension between cultural systems they navigate
  • Apply systemic awareness to their therapeutic or facilitation work with multicultural families
  • Hold complexity and silence around sexuality as material for constellation work
Target Audience: Therapists, facilitators, and professionals working with families and individuals in multicultural settings.

tural family work** — Participants leave with a systemic framework they can apply immediately in sessions with clients navigating cultural tension around sexuality, gender, and body — not just theory,2. **Personal insight that deepens professional presence** — Because the workshop uses live constellation work, participants often uncover their own unspoken loyalties around body and gender roles.

about Miriam
Close

I am an Arab woman living in Israel, and this dual reality is at the heart of both who I am and the work I bring into the room.

For over a decade, I have worked as an educational counselor and couple and family therapist, accompanying parents, couples, and families through some of their most intimate and complex struggles — relationships under strain, parenting challenges, and the quiet inheritances families carry without naming.
Constellation work entered my practice as a way to give voice to what often remains unspoken: the loyalties, silences, and inherited patterns that shape how we relate to our bodies, our relationships, and our sense of belonging.

Living between two cultural worlds has taught me that the most powerful healing often happens in the spaces we're told not to speak about. Working closely with parents and couples, I have witnessed again and again how much of what shapes a relationship — desire, gender roles, expectations passed from one generation to the next — remains hidden beneath the surface, simply because there has never been a safe enough space to bring it into the light.

I bring this awareness into every workshop I facilitate — holding complexity without rushing to resolve it, staying close to the lived experience of couples and families, and creating room for stories that don't usually find a stage.

In this workshop, I invite you to bring your own crossings — between cultures, generations, or silences — and discover what becomes possible when they are finally allowed into the field.

Family Beyond the Traditional Frame Belonging, Loyalty, and Lineage in Contemporary Family Systems
Close

Family constellations developed within a cultural context where family structures were generally assumed to be straightforward: mother, father, children, and a shared household. Today, practitioners increasingly encounter family systems that stretch beyond these assumptions.

Children may move between households, navigate competing loyalties, carry connections to biological and adoptive families, or be born through donor conception. Parents may include biological parents, step-parents, adoptive parents, intended parents, donors, or former partners who remain significant within the system. Questions of money, inheritance, authority, and belonging often become more—not less—complex.

Rather than asking how contemporary families fit existing systemic maps, this workshop asks what these families are teaching us about the evolution of constellation work itself.

Drawing on work with blended, adoptive, donor-conceived, and LGBTQ families, we will explore recurring systemic themes including split loyalties, the place of absent or excluded contributors, competing claims on resources, multiple forms of parenthood, and children belonging to more than one system at the same time.

Together we will examine which core principles of constellation work remain essential, where traditional assumptions may be insufficient, and how practitioners can work responsibly with the realities of contemporary family life.

Recognize recurring systemic dynamics in contemporary family systems Learn to identify patterns of split loyalty, competing belonging, complex lineage, and resource tensions across blended, adoptive, Expand your capacity to work with family structures beyond traditional assumptions Explore how core constellation principles can be applied skillfully and responsibly in the context of evolving familyGain practical approaches for addressing belonging, parenthood, and place in complex systems Leave with new perspectives and interventions for working with multiple households, donors, former partners

Gender Intelligence - What Is Gender?
Close

As helping professionals, understanding the intersections of biological sex, gender identity, and gender expression is essential—particularly as more individuals openly identify as transgender or gender fluid.

Designed for practitioners seeking to move past abstract or biased intellectual concepts, this experiential workshop builds the precise clinical empathy and grounded presence required to effectively support all of your clients, including those who are transgender or Queer.

Using her Trauma to Essence framework, Emily guides participants to map out personal, familial, and collective fields through spatial representation.

Visually exposing where historical conditioning blocks authentic alignment allows participants to consciously identify, process, and release systemic distortions.

Deconstruct societal and patriarchal conditioning through somatic movement to access your direct, felt gender intelligence.Deepen Therapeutic Presence by cultivating the systemic humility, grounding, and neutrality needed to support complex client narratives.Process Collective Trauma by moving beyond artificial societal divides into direct alignment with the Greater Soul.
about Emily
Close

As an internationally recognized teacher and innovator, Emily’s trajectory shifted profoundly 16 years ago when she recognized a three-year-old in her family as transgender, sparking an immersive dedication to understanding gender, identity, and gender oppression.

Following that, two additional teenage family members came out as transgender, forging vastly different paths that directly mirror the support or oppression they encountered.
Transgender children offer an undeniably clear -and rare- view of what gender truly is.

Grounded in a 35-year background in psycho-social justice—spanning conflict resolution in prisons to substance abuse prevention in homeless shelters—Emily now channels her expertise into VAST Methodology.
Informed by Hellinger's insights since 2002 this proprietary, visual somatic method is an entirely new paradigm for systemic healing.

We transcend traditional frameworks to empower individuals to more rapidly embody their life mission outside the trauma fields of oppression.

Yoni Constellations
Close

This special workshop is for women who wish to reconnect with their feminine center — their sacred inner space, their divine heritage, their Yoni.

In Yoni Constellations, this inner place is given a voice. The Yoni can express how she feels, share her messages, and reveal the emotions and needs that long to be heard.
So often, this sacred space has been affected by personal or generational wounds — by trauma, shame, silence, and the lack of honoring the feminine.
Experiences of abuse, sex-negative or suppressive upbringing, religious denial, disrespect, or insensitive and loveless sexuality can cause the Yoni to close, tighten, or grow numb.

When the Yoni is allowed to relax and return to her natural aliveness, something deeply beauti-ful unfolds.
Women experience greater self-confidence, radiance, and inner strength. Joy, creativity, sensuality, and deep pleasure can blossom — along with a loving, trusting relationship with one’s own body and femininity.

In a Yoni Constellation, you are gently invited to listen to the voice of your Yoni and receive her wisdom. Wounds and trauma can be seen, held, and integrated, allowing your deepest femi-nine essence to soften, heal, and flower again.
From this, a clearer sense of self-worth and inner truth emerges. Your sexuality can become more relaxed and fulfilling, and your intimate relationships more nourishing and joyful. En-counters with women and men may be shaped by mutual respect, equality, attraction, sensitivity, creativity, and heartfelt connection.
The divine feminine is present in these constellations as well — the source and origin of all life. In her presence, new inspiration, beauty, connection, and love can arise, supporting the full blossoming of your own womanhood.

My name is Irmgard Rosa Maria Rauscher

I am a facilitator of systemic constellation work for over 30 years.
I was trained by Bert Hellinger, Jakob Schneider, Matthias Varga von Kibéd, Sneh Victoria Schnabel, and Hunter Beaumont.

In recent years, I have developed a unique and innovative approach to constellation work: Yoni Constellations.
This work focuses on the deep dynamics between women and men, femininity, love, intimacy, sexuality, spirituality, and the ancient traditions of female deities. These themes have become both my professional focus and my personal calling.
At the heart of my therapeutic approach is the recognition and honoring of each person’s inner truth — a truth that is embedded in family history as well as in wider historical, social, and relational contexts.
My work supports clients in reconnecting with this deeper truth and integrating it into their lives.

I lead Yoni Constellation workshops in Germany, Austria, Italy, and Romania.
I also offer individual constellations in my private practice in Bad Tölz, Bavaria, as well as online for clients worldwide.
In 2006, I published the book Feuerroter Wandel (“Fiery Red Transformation”), a pioneering guide to female menopause, released by Kösel Verlag in Germany.

The Intelligence of Eros
Close

Eros is the life-force of desire, creativity and aliveness. How alive is yours?
Eros is the intelligence within the body that draws us towards love, creativity, purpose and our deepest truth. Beneath every authentic yes, every meaningful connection, every creative impulse and every moment of deep presence lies the current of Eros.
More than sexuality, Eros is the intelligence that guides us towards what truly lights us up.

In this experiential workshop, we will explore what may be limiting the natural flow of your erotic life-force.
Without story or agenda, the field reveals what is ready to be seen, allowing profound shifts to emerge with surprising ease.
As your connection to Eros awakens, you may discover a deeper relationship with your body's wisdom... your intuition... your capacity for pleasure... and your passion for life itself.
This is not about becoming someone different. It is about remembering the life-force that has always been yours.
Come curious... leave more deeply connected to the fire that longs to live through you.

Together we will explore:

  • Eros as your source of creativity, vitality and purpose.
  • Embody your definitive knowing of the felt sense of your "yes and no."
  • The mystery and transformative potential of this mini "triple-blind" constellation.
about Isy
Close

Isy Gabriel is the founder of Obsidian Quantum Constellations, an alchemy forged through the resilient journey of personal pain, 40 years of eclectic study and experience from a field PhD to embodied Tantra, and a passion for the evolution of human consciousness.
The underlying intention of Obsidian is to track to the roots of the ancestral traumas still echoing in the patterns that shape our lives today. What Isy loves most is the grace and depth of these life-changing shifts, that send ripples into and through the collective.
Using the metaphor of Quantum entanglement theory, we seek to reveal the emotional match back in the lineage with the current day pattern presenting. Through the true resonance of representation, these two points meet in the quantum field where time and space collapse.

The ancestors are held for a pause in “time”, in honour of their difficult fate. The charge in the system naturally dissipates, the allegiance is neutralised, paradigm refreshed, resourced now by the new resolution, strength and ease in the system. This deep approach is often not for the faint-hearted.

Known for her zeal to address topics such as sexuality, menopause, and healthy leadership and power (masculine/feminine archetypes), she loves holding her “Mini Obsidians” in drug-free festivals/conferences/groups for fields even over 100 people, all journeying in their tetrad of 4: “What’s in the way of my desire?”
Isy brings deep ceremony to these containers, in person and online.

The Obsidian community has over 100 fabulous humans drawn to regularly support this field of work. They are the ORBS: Obsidian Resonators Bio-Sphere. It is free to join, witness and resonate online. Please dm Isy to join the ORBS WhatsApp community thread.

Isy is now training facilitators in this deep Obsidian approach to Constellations.

Looking into and beyond the shadows in our relationships
Close

In every interaction within our relationships - especially the significant ones - shadows are present. At times they are quiet, repressed, and 'well-behaved,' and only occasionally erupting and emerging from their hiding places.
At other times, they cast their shadows over our relationships, obscuring their true colors and bringing constriction and a sense of lack.

In this workshop, following a brief theoretical introduction and the sharing of key concepts, we will engage in simple, structured, and well-held experiential exercise.
Together, we will shed light on these shadows, allowing them to return to where they belong, while we ourselves return to our rightful size - no longer needing to carry the shadows we have taken upon ourselves.
From there, we may allow our relationships to spread their wings in their full breadth, vitality, and vibrant colors.

From Cultural Conditioning to Conscious Choice / Systemic Constellations for Gender, Sexual Development
Close

From the moment we are born, culture begins shaping our understanding of who we are. Messages about gender, our bodies, emotions, intimacy, and sexuality become deeply embodied through family, culture, religion, and society.

In this experiential workshop, participants will explore how these early cultural and parental messages influence adult relationships, intimacy, and sexual development.
Through embodied systemic constellation exercises, including body-part constellations, and resource-oriented parental messages, participants will experience how unconscious patterns can become visible and transformed into new, life-supporting inner experiences.

Participants will: Explore how cultural and parental messages shape gender identity and sexual development.Recognise inherited beliefs, taboos, and relational patterns that influence adult intimacy and relationships.Learn practical, resource-oriented constellation interventions, including positive parental messages, that can be applied in their own professional practice.
about Melahat
Close

Growing up between two cultures has profoundly shaped both my personal journey and my professional work. Born in Türkiye, I moved to Switzerland at the age of 13 and experienced first-hand what it means to navigate different cultural value systems, family expectations, gender roles, and concepts of belonging.

Migration is more than adapting to a new country. It often requires people to renegotiate their identity, relationships, and inherited beliefs about love, sexuality, partnership, marriage, and family. Values that once created security can become sources of inner conflict in a different cultural context. Many people living between cultures struggle to balance personal autonomy with family loyalty and tradition.

These experiences inspired my work as a systemic constellation facilitator and adult educator. I support individuals, couples, and groups in recognising unconscious family and cultural patterns that influence identity, partner choice, intimacy, and relationships. My approach combines systemic constellation work with experiential learning, enabling participants not only to understand these dynamics intellectually but also to experience meaningful transformation.

A particular focus of my work is how cultural narratives around gender, sexuality, and relationships are transmitted across generations. Rather than rejecting one's cultural heritage, constellation work offers the opportunity to honour one's roots while consciously choosing beliefs and relationship patterns that support a fulfilling adult life.

Having lived between cultures myself, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to this work. I create safe, culturally sensitive learning spaces where participants can explore complex questions of identity, belonging, and connection. I believe lasting change becomes possible when inherited cultural scripts are transformed into conscious choices, allowing people to integrate the strengths of different cultures and build authentic, healthy relationships.

Belonging as We Are: Creating an Inclusive Climate in Family Constellations
Close

This workshop is not primarily about couple dynamics, but about the professional climate we create in Family Constellations. It focuses on inclusion, facilitator attitude, language, safety, belonging, and systemic awareness when working with LGBTQI+ clients and participants.

This workshop explores how facilitators can create a respectful, inclusive, and non-pathologising climate in Family Constellations for LGBTQI+ clients and participants.

While sexuality, gender, and identity may appear as themes in constellation work, the focus of this workshop is not to “work on” LGBTQI+ identity as a problem. Instead, the workshop invites facilitators to reflect on the quality of the field they create: the language they use, the assumptions they carry, the safety they offer, and the ways in which belonging can be supported without requiring self-betrayal.
From a systemic perspective, many LGBTQI+ people have experienced exclusion, silence, shame, or conditional belonging in their families, communities, or professional and spiritual environments. A constellation field can become healing when it offers dignity, recognition, and a clear message: You belong as you are.

The workshop will address how facilitators can hold LGBTQI+ themes with humility, respect, and professional clarity. We will explore inclusive language, the impact of heteronormative assumptions, the difference between systemic inquiry and pathologising interpretation, and the importance of recognising both individual identity and family belonging.

Participants will be invited to reflect on their own professional positioning and to explore practical ways of creating a constellation space in which LGBTQI+ clients, couples, and participants can feel seen, respected, and safe.

Participants will gain a clearer understanding of how to create a respectful and inclusive constellation field for LGBTQI+ clients and participants.Participants will learn to recognise and reduce heteronormative or pathologising assumptions in language, interventions, and facilitator attitude.Participants will explore how belonging, dignity, and safety can be supported in Family Constellations without asking LGBTQI+ people to explain, justify, or diminish who they are.

My path as a family constellations facilitator began with a simple yet profound question: why is it so difficult for us to be authentic and autonomous — and why do we so often end up living on “autopilot,” as if we were following a script that does not truly belong to us?

That question also marked the beginning of my own search. Over time, I became increasingly drawn to the hidden loyalties, inherited patterns, and systemic dynamics that shape our lives — often without our conscious awareness. Today, my work is centered on creating spaces where these invisible influences can be seen, understood, and gently transformed.

I hold a degree in Psychology and became a licensed psychologist after a previous career in law. My professional path has also included international training in transactional analysis (UKCP), hypnotherapy (American Board of Hypnotherapy), coaching, professional training, and certification as a systemic and family constellations facilitator.

In my practice, I work with people who, on the outside, appear to be functioning well — but who, on the inside, feel that something deeper is limiting them: a repeating relationship pattern, a difficulty in taking their place, a sense of carrying something that may not fully belong to them, or a persistent feeling of pressure, guilt, or not being “good enough.”

Family constellations offer a way of looking beyond the individual story and into the wider system we come from. They help reveal how unresolved experiences, exclusions, losses, loyalties, and unspoken burdens within a family system may continue to influence present-day choices, relationships, emotions, and identity.

At the same time, I also work with teams and organizations, where similar systemic patterns can appear in another form: communication blocks, unclear roles, lack of ownership, recurring tensions, or results below potential — despite genuine effort and investment in development.

My approach integrates systemic constellations, transactional analysis, life script work, and experiential methods — including hypnosis — to support change not only at the level of insight, but also at a deeper, embodied level, where these patterns are formed, carried, and maintained.

“I do not believe in universal solutions. I believe in processes built together, with respect for your rhythm and for the systems you belong to — processes that can bring greater clarity, belonging, autonomy, and authenticity, in life and in the way you relate to others.”

My sexual wound

The first thing that is being touched in love is our wound. Most of us have blockades in sexuality, intimacy and relationships.

In order to experience an open, intimate and ecstatic sexuality we must go on a courageous journey into ourselves in order to meet and get to know our wounds.
Pain, shame, fears and insecurities about sexuality are created by experiences or things that have happened in the past or by collective memories.
Our body remembers them and floods them in every intimate/sexual interaction because our system wants to cure them.

In the workshop we will find out how the wound has the potential to become a resource of extraordinary, exciting energy and life force through constellation exercises, focusing and somatic awareness awakening.

Releasing barriers and connecting to listening inwardly to the body, which allows us to take responsibility for ourselves and create change in our relationships.Connecting to the flow of life force energy, love and Eros.Learning a model that can help us turn any barrier into a resource that supports us in fulfilling our dreams and fantasies.

Another Pair of Eyes: Queer Ancestry as a Practice for Seeing the Field More Fully
Close

This workshop offers constellation facilitators a specific practice: working with your own queer ancestry to expand how you read the field.

There is a filter most facilitators don't know they're looking through, built into language and family models, organizing the world into pairs: male and female, normal and deviant, inside and outside the system. It doesn't feel like a story. It feels like what we see.

Every lineage, biological, spiritual, cultural, contains figures expelled for being too fluid, too unclassifiable, too both/and. Making contact with those figures shifts perception, not as a technique but as a lived experience of the field becoming larger. That expansion carries into every session you lead after.


    What Stays With You

  • A concrete, repeatable methodology for working with queer and gender-diverse clients, grounded in constellation principles
  • Recognition of the binary filter operating in the field, and what becomes visible when it loosens, in queer constellations and beyond
  • Contact with excluded figures in your own lineage, and the shift that comes when they finally receive a place
