dan-
somehow i got an email from "alison" about an appointment with you.

Dan:

Hey, I'm guessing that since you haven't responded to my phone message and email about the possible appointment with Andreanna that you haven't been able to find the time to come down. Since she gets pretty booked up, I'll assume that unless I hear from you otherwise. If you are still interested, please do let me know before 9 PM tonight, and then we'd need to coordinate when you could fit into her schedule, as it now is.

love,

ALison

i'd rather not get that kind of stuff.

good question, by the way.
best,
stuart

I am working on a Masters degree in psychology.  For one of my papers I am writing about why Bert Hellinger and Family Constellations have no place in American psychology, as represented by academic research and licensed clinical practice.  

 

A dismissive answer is that Hellinger and Family Constellations are not legitimate subjects. It’s like asking the same question about “Dear Abby” or “Dame Edna.”  One response is that Hellinger and Constellation work are emerging as legitimate in other parts of the world.  

 

My question is, can anyone cite jurisdictions, professional associations, government agencies, licensing boards, etc. that have sanctioned or legitimized the use of constellation work?

Dear Chris and Dan and group,

Thank you so much for creating the space to address the convergence of Buddhism and Family Constellations. I have often felt while watching Bert work, that he was so "in the flow" of love's energy that all was held, all was acceptable, all was present, and I was in the presence of an "enlightened" being.

I particularly appreciated th article on your website, Chris, on holding the therapeutic "paradigms" in your practice. In my private practice as a psychotherapist using energy-based therapies, thoughts of these seemingly conflicting approaches appear, and sometimes I can let them go, let myself go, and surrender to trust that my client's process is unfolding as it should, if I can just stay out of the way! At these times, in holding this space, my client often creates the intervention that their own soul requires.
I sometimes find it more more difficult to enter this space when facilitating constellations but hope that this will come in time with more experience and confidence.
It's wonderful to be able to share these ideas with you all, so far away! I was just inOaxacawith Bert and practitioners from many of theAmericas. It's inspiring to see what inroads the Latin Americans have made in their cultures with this work. There were more than 600 practitioners there! One shared with me that Family Court Judges in her country are using this work to resolve custody disputes in divorce proceedings!
Anyway, I appreciate being on-line with all of you!
