Systemic Constellation
A focused space for insight, integration, and gentle transformation
What is Systemic Constellation Work?
Systemic Family Constellation therapy is a method rooted in ancient Zulu tribal wisdom and later introduced to the West and further developed by psychotherapist Bert Hellinger. It explores how family history, relationships and inherited patterns continue to shape our lives — often beyond conscious awareness.
As a certified advanced practitioner and lifelong student of this work, I ground my approach in a simple truth: we are relational beings. We mirror one another, attract experiences that invite learning, and are influenced not only by our upbringing, but also by generational and epigenetic inheritance — ways of coping, relating and surviving that did not begin with us.
In a constellation session, these hidden influences can become visible — not through analysis or storytelling, but through direct, embodied experience. What often emerges are dynamics you may have sensed for years but couldn’t fully name, allowing movement, relief and new perspective to arise.
Alongside my private practice, I integrate systemic and constellation-informed perspectives into my work as an organizational and international development consultant.
Whether working with individuals, teams or institutions, I’ve seen how unseen relational dynamics often shape outcomes more than strategy alone.

Private Constellation Sessions
For individuals, I offer constellation work in one-to-one private online or in-person sessions, where the pace and focus can be held with personal care. Sessions may explore family and generational patterns, inner dynamics, or present-life questions, whatever feels most relevant for you.
Individual Systemic Family Constellation with Ankea is offered as a guided, one-on-one process that unfolds in 3 stages:
Orientation
& Attunement
Initial Session
A gentle first session to explore what’s present and what’s calling for attention.
We clarify your intention, get oriented to the constellation process, and sense together what type of work would be most supportive right now.
Systemic Inquiry
One-on-One Session
A private process, with or without painting, guided by what emerges and oriented toward family dynamics, relational patterns, or inner movements seeking acknowledgment or integration.
The work unfolds slowly and respectfully, guided by what shows itself rather than forcing outcomes. No prior experience is needed.
Integration & Embodiment
Integration and follow-up
Time and space to integrate what emerged through reflection, conversation, or creative expression such as writing, song or paint.
This step supports insight settling into the body and everyday life, helping the experience become something you can carry forward.
What Constellation Work Supports
Systemic Constellation Work can support people in exploring patterns that feel difficult to shift through insight or effort alone. Benefits may include:
Greater clarity in relationships, leadership, and decision-making where patterns previously felt confusing or resistant to effort
Relief from subtle inner tension — the sense of being pulled, constrained, or conflicted despite outward competence
A felt shift in how responsibility is carried, allowing ease without disengagement
Recognition & release of inherited dynamics, even when life appears stable and functional
Support during transitions, helping you reconnect with what feels aligned and true before taking next steps
A deeper sense of coherence, where inner experience and outer life begin to match more naturally
Access to bodily knowing, allowing insight to emerge beyond thinking or analysis alone
An experiential understanding of constellation work, approached with respect, containment and care
In- Person Constellation Circle
In addition to private sessions, I offer in-person constellation circles in Kailua-Kona. These gatherings create a shared space where personal and relational themes can be explored through the constellation process.
Participants may join as a focus client, receiving a constellation, or as a representative. Both roles often bring meaningful insight, reflection, and learning. No prior experience is required.
These circles are offered periodically as the local community grows, with the intention of moving toward regular monthly gatherings.

Monthly Online Constellation Circle
In addition to in-person gatherings and private sessions, I co-host a monthly online constellation circle with a fellow practitioner.
This circle offers a gentle and accessible way to experience constellation work in community. Each gathering includes one or two constellations, with participants joining as representatives or observers.
The person receiving the constellation pays for the session, while representatives and observers are welcome to attend at no cost, allowing people to become familiar with the work in a supportive environment.

This work begins with curiosity and a willingness to listen to what is a quietly present.

FAQs
Find answers to commonly asked questions for Constellation Work.
What is the difference between Constellation Work and Systemic Family Constellations?
(Systemic) Constellation Work is a shortened term for Systemic Family Constellation. It is a method rooted in ancient Zulu tribal wisdom and later introduced to the West by psychotherapist Bert Hellinger. It explores how family history, relationships and inherited patterns continue to shape our lives — often beyond conscious awareness. This work integrates insights from family systems theory, phenomenology and cross-cultural observation.
While the method has evolved over time, the core principle remains: when hidden relational dynamics are acknowledged, systems can naturally reorganize.
How does a session work?
In individual sessions, we use objects, figures, simple markers or visualization to represent people, inner parts, or elements of a system. These representations are placed in relation to one another, allowing patterns to become visible — often without needing to analyze or explain them intellectually.
Information arises through:
Spatial relationships
Bodily sensations
Emotional responses
Shifts in perception
The process unfolds slowly and respectfully, guided by what shows itself rather than by interpretation or diagnosis.
How is this different from coaching or traditional therapy?
Constellation work is not coaching, and it is not talk therapy.
Coaching primarily works with goals, mindset, and conscious behavior.
Traditional therapy often focuses on narrative, history, and processing.
Constellation work engages the unconscious and relational field, where many patterns originate. Because it does not rely solely on insight or effort, changes can sometimes occur more quickly — though outcomes are never forced or guaranteed.
Why can constellation work feel impactful even in a short time?
Much of our behavior is guided by unconscious patterns shaped by family history, early attachment, and even epigenetic inheritance — the way experiences are passed across generations through biology and relational imprinting.
By bringing awareness to these deeper layers, constellation work can create shifts without needing to “fix” or analyze the problem extensively.
How long does a session last?
An assessment session takes up to one hour. An individual constellation session can last 2-3 hours, allowing time to arrive, explore and integrate what emerges.
Do I need prior experience or preparation?
No prior experience is needed. You do not need prior knowledge of constellation work — a quiet sense that something wants attention, along with openness to explore it, is enough. We begin with on orientation session to find out what type of work would be most supportive for you right now.
What is the investment for Individual Constellation sessions?
Orientation Session — $50 (30 minutes to 1 hour)
A first conversation to explore what is bringing you, clarify your intention, and sense whether this work may be supportive at this time.

Integration Session — $75 (1 hour)

What is the investment for Group Constellation Gatherings?

How do I know if this work is right for me?
If you’re unsure, an initial assessment session can help clarify whether constellation work — and which approach — is appropriate for you at this time.
