About this Event
What we're doing this afternoon:
We will all do some exercises that "warm up the field", to give and receive a small personal constellation for each participant.
Then, one person will share an issue they struggle with right now, or something they've been longing to address. We will take a soulful, systemic view of the issue as a group to see if there are movements available.
We heal relationships, in relationship with others. Representing and witnessing in another's constellation can have profound impacts on your own life. Everyone who attends will receive some benefit from the healing movements of the group.
It is $30 to join as a Representative.
It is $165 to have your issue constellated by the group.
Please email me if you have questions or would like to have your own constellation: [email protected]
This event takes place at Wildcat Studio, located in the Sawtooth Arts Building

The BIG picture:
We suffer all kinds of pains, which can express themselves in our bodies, relationships, work and financial situation, or just the way we are able to grieve our losses and move through challenges. When these issues are persistent and hard to resolve, it may be time to step back and look at the whole family system, the origins from where we came.
Our ancestors immigrated, worked, and sacrificed in the hopes of creating a better future, as they saw it. We are that future. Our sense of belonging reaches back and includes them, and the systems and cultural events that they were in are also the roots of our experiences.
Difficult histories may be kept with silence and even guilt. You, or someone you love, might be repeating the unspoken pain in an unconscious way, to bring it to light to finally be witnessed. You don’t even have to know the older generations or the details of the past; it is embedded deep within the family consciousness. This hidden loyalty may be why the pain in your life won’t budge.
Family constellations are a way to map these systems, and allow them to be seen and acknowledged. In a supportive group environment, we are including what has been lost or forgotten, to complete the picture. This awareness allows those patterns to rest, and we can take a step towards reconciliation within ourselves.

W here did this come from?
Family Constellations have evolved from the work of Bert Hellinger, a German psychotherapist who found that each member in our family holds a special place and has an equal right to belong to the family system. Only when we acknowledge and honor the difficult fates of those who've preceded us, can the "Orders of Love" be reestablished and the chain of tragic destinies be broken. Along with Family Sculpting, Gestalt Therapy, and other approaches to healing; Hellinger was deeply influenced by 16 years of working with the Zulu people in South Africa.
Who is Christina?
I am a counselor, a performer who loves to play, and the American daughter of a German immigrant. Family Constellations have allowed me to go much deeper into the space that needed the most healing for me: my family. In addition to constellations, I have background with nature rituals and co-lead grief groups as a hospice volunteer. I am also a Certified Hypnotherapist (CHT) and a Depth Hypnosis Practitioner, with Level 1 training in the Internal Family Systems model (IFS). I earned an MA in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Drama Therapy from California Institute of Integral Studies.
I offer intuitive companionship on the path to re-connecting with inner guidance. My specialty is working with artists and creative people. In addition to working with family and systemic issues in constellations; I focus on self-expression, reclaiming power, and the integration of parts that may have been lost along the way.
