Family Constellations
Family constellations is a way of gently working within the system of a family and exploring unfinished patterns and intergeneration trauma. Experiences that have happened in past generations that have been suppressed and exclude from a family system, often have an impact many generations down the track.
Significant issues such as early death of siblings and grandparents, mental health, addictions, miscarriages, stillbirths and abortions, murder and tragic deaths, war, adoptions, divorce and broken first loves, victims, and perpetrators of crime, excluded family members and hidden family secrets all have lasting impacts on the family system.
A family constellation is not your ‘typical’ talk therapy, as it is lead by movement and setting up family members in a direction you experience them and allowing natural movement to be facilitated by myself. Healing sentences can be stated as a way of bringing peace, acknowledgment, and honour back into the family. This can allow the family to experience a sense of ‘pieces of the puzzle coming together’ and an internal peace that things are no longer out of alignment.
Suddenly all my ancestors are behind me. Be still, they say. Watch and listen. You are the result of the love of thousands.
"Our daughter who suffers with an eating disorder and mental health issues has worked with Tracy for a few years and the difference in her now compared to when she started is amazing. She seems to have her spark back.
Tracy has a very unique way of making you feel comfortable and at ease with sharing.
So when my partner and I were at a loss with each other in our relationship which was falling apart we thought of no one better to help than Tracy.
We had never done couples counselling before and were a bit nervous about how it would go. We are still seeing Tracy today and she is nothing but amazing, her relaxed and calm approach to our situation is comforting. We have found that our communication is already better, and we are looking at each other with less contempt and more compassion. Tracy also likes to set tasks which have been helpful and beneficial to bringing us closer as a couple. We were both unsure what couples counselling would look like but Tracy helps it feel less complicated and tense. We seem more relaxed with each other and are finding ourselves listening more to one another's needs and wants. I am finding things out about myself that I never even realised would have an effect on our relationship. Tracy has a way of helping you see things from a different perspective.
I have had individual counselling in the past, it felt clinical and awkward but with Tracy this is not the case. My partner is actually looking forward to our visits with Tracy which I never thought I would say.
If your family, relationship, or you need a little help it is definitely worth a visit, and I guarantee you will find yourself returning as we have."
