Family Constellations: Healing Our Family of Origin 

“Do not think that love, in order to be genuine, has to be extraordinary what we need is to love without conditions.”                                                                   Mother Teresa 

First of 2023 Family Constellations Workshop

Workshop Date: Saturday, March 4th @ 10 am to 1 pm (Arrive by 9:45am)

Location: Ss. Aedan-Brendan parish hall, 112 Fountain Street, NEW HAVEN
(Basement/hall entrance is located at the Alden Avenue parking lot).

We often have issues that belong to our family of origin – called entanglements and
identifications. Family Constellations helps one regain balance, respect, dignity and love, thus freeing us to live and love more fully by healing our past and offering us a greater capacity to love.

Family Constellations is an alive, uniquely phenomenological – spiritual – experience
exposing hidden dynamics within families’ traumas and/or misfortunes, often played out within friendships, marriages, and family life. Family Constellations can touch our deepest core, transforming us and the lives of those we love. The innocence of a child wants only to love his or her family, and will often sacrifice their own best interests in a blind belief this suffering will ensure a belonging to the family. This workshop brings such hidden loyalties to light so that love can flow in a healthier way.

Constellations uncover disruptions so we can find strength, dignity, belonging and love. Such profound healing comes about as we explore personal issues related to illness, split-off parts of the Self, and difficulties in work and relationship situations. With this we are opened to a greater freedom and power to love.

Those in the helping professions can acquire systemic constellations skills to cultivate into their own practices. Attendees are able to feel the effects of the workshop and the freedom resulting from powerful resolutions.

Facilitator: Don Paglia, a veteran marriage and family therapist, trained with J. Edward Lynch, Ph.D., of the New England Institute of Systemic Constellations, and with other world leaders, and has been a trainer for the New England Institute. Don has Advanced Post Graduate Training, including Bowen Family Therapy, and Gestalt Therapy. He has facilitated numerous  systemic constellations since 2003.
