Group Constellation Therapy as a Form of Treatment

Hi all,

My practioner has recommended I attend Group Constellation Therapy.

I don't know too much about it, but I think its a form of of group therapy designed to help you deal with deep systematic issues you may have with key people in your life (family, lovers etc). The goal is to improve your state of mind and subsequently your health.

I'm slightly dubious as apparently it came up in ART testing as something my body needs to help heal. These sessions are run through my practitioner so I'm worried that he may simply be using ART as a way of convincing to buy an additional "treatment". It's expensive as it would mean I would have to fly up to scotland to attend and spend a whole weekend there so it's quite a heavy investment for me to do right now.

It has repeatedly come up since I've started the ART testing but i've been hesitant to sign up to it.

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this in anyway and whether anyone has found it useful?

Thanks

Adey

Thanks for the response, it's most appreciated.

So far I haven't really been able to contact anyone who has experience with this. I may try and get another opinion from another ART practitioner.

I've looked it up and there are group constellation sessions available to me locally where I don't have to spend the time, costs of travel and accommodation. These sessions wouldn't be booked through him and he wouldn't be making anything from them.

If the ART that he does is suggesting that I do this, I shouldn't be a problem that I do it through someone else if its far easier and practical for me, as the therapy is pretty much the same no matter who does it for me.

I would get particular suspicious if he says I have to do it through him as it shouldn't make a difference.

Thanks

Ade
