Responding to Individual Trauma within Constellation Work

In this workshop I would like to share my findings and learning about trauma emergence in the seeker, and ways in which a constellation practitioner can be trauma-responsive. As a certified Family Constellation Helper, certified
Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner (work of Dr Gabor Mate) and trained in Trauma Research Studies (by Dr Kolk’s work), I have noticed that with trauma awareness increasing, it is more easily felt and activated in the individual soul energy field.

When trauma becomes open and activate in the seeker, there is disruption in the knowing field in a way that needs to be given immediate pause and attention. The personal conscience takes over in a way that comes in the way of insight and resolution. When the seeker is pushed further without acknowledgement, it can re-trigger the original traumatic experience for the seeker, open trauma for everyone else, and can result even, in mental emotional harm. When trauma is detected, given space, and included in the field through staying with the present, the client co-regulated with, there is an immediate settling felt by all. I want to share systemic perspective and ways in which the
constellation practitioner can be more mindful of trauma, my own findings, and working with the emergence of trauma within constellation work.
