Family constellation therapy

Family Constellation Therapy is a therapeutic approach developed by Bert Hellinger that aims to uncover and address underlying family dynamics and unresolved issues that might affect individuals' well-being. This therapy focuses on understanding and resolving systemic patterns within a family, often involving role-playing and guided visualizations. Some proponents suggest that Family Constellation Therapy can benefit individuals with autism. There is a lack of rigorous, peer-reviewed research specifically examining the effectiveness of Family Constellation Therapy for autism. Most research on this therapy focuses on general family dynamics and various psychological issues, not autism. Be cautious of any claims that suggest Family Constellation Therapy can significantly improve autism symptoms without evidence-based support. The role-playing and exploration of family dynamics may bring up difficult emotions or conflicts. This process may be distressing for some individuals and may require careful management by a qualified therapist. It can be considered as a scam.
