Family Constellations, profound and healing

Imagine a constellation in the sky -- a grouping of stars that depicts you and your ancestors.

Whether you observe or actively participate, you’ll learn a lot about yourself and how you are a part of those who came before you.

We recommend early registration for all groups and trainings by contacting Karen.

What happens in a Family Constellation?

Someone identifies a personal issue – relationship, business, children, family or health – and selects group members to represent family members who are placed in open space, which is called "the field." The positioning reveals the dynamics – both hidden and evident – within the family system.

The facilitator repositions the people to restore respect, dignity and love, especially those who’ve been excluded or forgotten. As reconciliation is achieved, the genuine love and strength in the family can begin to flow.

Each person who attends a constellation session, whether participant or observer, can experience the profound effects of this change.


What if I don't know what problem I wish to address?

People who attend a group constellation session may participate in several ways:
  • Some simply observe.
  • Some serve as representatives, agreeing stand in for family members or aspects that relate to the issue that is to be explored.
  • A person may volunteer to “work,” having identified an issue that he or she is ready to address.

Do you offer individual sessions?

Constellations are most effective in group settings. However, there are times when individual sessions are helpful to introduce the process to the person, gain information about family history or address concerns that are initially difficult to reveal in a group setting. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Karen offers video conference sessions.

Who is the facilitator?

Karen Carnabucci, LCSW, TEP, is a licensed psychotherapist who specializes in non-traditional healing and body-mind psychotherapies.

She has been involved with this innovative healing process since 2002 and is certified in this method by Heinz Stark, an internationally recognized trainer from Germany.


She is the co-author of Integrating Psychodrama and Systemic Constellations Work: New Directions for Action Methods, Mind-Body Therapies and Energy Healing with the late Ronald Anderson.

She integrates psychodrama, mindfulness, art, imagery and other methods to enhance this healing and change process.
