2013 - Shamanic Constellations Richard Higgens
Emma’s professional and diverse journey includes being a Pilates Instructor, a BodyTalk Practitioner, Muscle Activation, Tre (Trauma and Tension Releasing Exercises), Systemic Family Constellation, Fascia Release Therapy, Gestalt Counselling skills and QEC (Quantum Energy Coaching).
Emma was introduced to Family Constellation Therapy as part of sessions with her psychologist, and was amazed how much of her Grandparents’ and parents’ life experiences she was entangled with, and how they were influencing her life. Becoming aware of these patterns and working through a healing process allowed Emma to move forward in her life , releasing the stuckness and disassociation.
Just as we inherit physical traits from our parents, we also inherit emotional patterns that are unconscious and unspoken. Unaware of their influences upon us, we perpetuate family patterns of illness and disease, failure, unhappiness, addictions and alcoholism, depression etc. and pass them on to our children and generations thereafter.
Emma is body based in her work and draws on her diverse knowledge and experience to provide and facilitate a holistic experience for the client.
I offer constellations in private practice, where I work with children, adolescents and adults. As a Fine Artist, Focusing-Orientated Therapist and nature connection facilitator, I offer avenues to reconnect with aliveness, and the forward movements that flow from this – through creativity, bodily sensing and attunement to nature around and within.
I am interested in the ways in which our relationship with Nature can be enhanced through constellations work, the relationship between constellations and wilderness, and the practical deepening of the phenomenology of constellations work.
My work concentrates on identifying what is needed to increase the effectiveness and contentedness of people at work... and in all areas of life. Transactional Analysis and Systemic Constellations are important modalities contributing to my own development and my work with clients. I work one-on-one and in groups, in various spaces - from offices to horse paddocks.
