Family Constellation Training first weekend 26th-28th March 2021 in Maleny
What is Family AND systemic constellation?
FAMILYISYSTEMIC CONSTELLATION is a phenomenological process that allows us to reconnect with our ancestors. Through difficult circumstances such as war or cultural atrocities, the connection to our lineage is often interrupted or severed. To regain familial strength and support, Family Constellations provide a strong restorative process, healing the disruptions to reach out movements within family systems and nations. The process works with symptoms such as illness, addiction and strong emotions.
Practitioners are drawn to this work as it provides a strengthening healing capacity on a deep soul level that works from profound respect and humility to acknowledge what is trying to be seen and resolved in families and other systems. It is currently used as a reconciliation process throughout the world with individuals, schools, communities and organisations.

"This course has deeply enriched my understanding of the profound impact ancestral ties has had, and continues to have, on my life and the lives of my clients. This understanding, combined with the training in facilitating constellations, has given greater depth and meaning to my work with groups and clients. Margarete is a warm, wise and highly skilled teacher who I feel privileged to know. I continue to be inspired by her ability to combine her humanity and professionalism with such grace. Thank you."

"Working for over 30 years as a psychologist, and for a number of years being in therapy myself, I became very much aware that one on one sessions were inadequate to release the clients (and myself) from the painful family entanglements. I was looking for a new way to deal with the family legacy. Family Constellation opened up a possibility to pursue a fresh path towards personal freedom. I was very fortunate to have an opportunity to attend the seminar based on Bert Hellinger's work with the most wonderful, experienced and skillful facilitator Margarete who with her inner beauty, sensitivity, sincerity and compassion as well as firmness enabled me to escape the shackles of an ancestral load I have carried for seventy years. This was not only the legacy of my parents and the parents of my parents and those down the line but of my country of origin - Russia with all its suffering and pain. I hope that the two simple words of "thank you" to my teacher can adequately express my gratitude for my freedom at long last and for making big changes in my life".

"3 years ago I began working with Margarete as her client where I became aware of and then participated in her Family Constellation work with some very positive results in my own healing and personal growth. Being an active member of, as well as working within the local indigenous Community for many years, I had a professional interest in checking the possibility of sharing this work within our indigenous community, Aunty Jenny Thompson (a local Aboriginal elder} also participated in this training with a desire to explore the appropriateness of this work for our community. The training gave us enthusiasm and excitement of the new possibilities of healing and growth that this work could offer our community!!! I am confident to do some of this work with other fledgling facilitators and would also like further supervision with Margarete as Idevelop my skills in this field. Margarete is in my perception a highly skilled facilitator of this work and it was an absolute privilege to be her student as she graciously shared her wisdom and experience with sensitivity and depth".

A trusted friend told me about Margarete’s Family Constellations Training Program and is was intrigued. I had attended a number of Family Constellations workshops and personally experienced and seen others get enormous gain from the work and I’d thought about doing some training for a while. I’d done some research on where I could
do the training yet nothing sat right with me until my friend told me about Margarete’s training. After a five minute phone conversation with Margarete, I signed up for the program. I’d never heard of her nor experienced her work prior yet I knew it was the right step, one that I am so glad I took.
Personally, my level of acceptance of others and their situations has grown enormously. I’ve dropped so many expectations and judgments of others. I’m better equipped to primarily be responsible for my wellbeing and I can more
readily have others support me…without expectation.
Professionally, my understanding and application of the work continues to grow. Margarete’s teaching style is empowering, directive, clear and engaging. I’ve loved it. The safe working environment that Margarete and
her team provides has allowed me to comfortably stretch and grow with each training session.
If you want to learn more about Family Constellations for yourself and those you love or want to facilitate the process with others, I am confident you will learn and grow enormously from doing the training. For me it’s been a lot of learning, fun and growth and I know that’s true for others in the training. A heartfelt thanks to Margarete, Tina and my ‘classmates’.

My introduction to Family & Systemic Constellation work was a real eye opener to the insightful healing this work brings. With its foundation principles, that make a lot of sense, along with a multitude of other understandings, brought together my many years of experience in the therapeutic field with such clarity and profound wisdom, that I was moved
to study it further. This work is, I believe, an essential must have experience for anyone wanting to bring peace
to their lives.
Personally I have witnessed many changes in myself, family, clients and life through the depth of this field.
It is rewarding and often liberating from old mindsets and beliefs that no longer served me. I have found far deeper freedom in my life, far less burdens and much greater joy because of this work. My family, friends and clients have found the same.
The depth, knowledge and compassion of the facilitator Margarete Koenning is of such a high standard that I have no hesitation in recommending her as both a teacher and practitioner in this field. She is exceptionally insightful, while also an engaging, has such tremendous knowledge and can easily convey the depth of this to anyone. I personally feel extremely blessed to have her as our teacher and have heard others speak of her as world class and
have to agree!
Additionally, her assistant practitioner Tina Bloemer is also a knowledgeable, genuine and empathetic with a beautifully insightful heart too. Together they make afantastic team.
If you are considering looking at Constellation work in the future, as either a client or student, then look no further, you have found the right answer here!
