My speciality is to work with Descendants of Immigrants
Namibian born, I feel my roots in Europe and my heart is beating the African drum. As a descendant of immigrants, I know of the challenges which come along with relocating to another continent. The systemic approach has made me aware of the opportunities which lie in this constellation of being a child of immigrants within a foreign community.

Undine Whande has worked with systemic coaching and constellations in her coaching practice since 2006. She has been part of teams fostering peace and justice on the African continent since her work with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in South Africa since in the mid-1990s. From here, her focus went to supporting frontline human rights and peace activists, especially around healing from burn-out. From 2010 she increasingly focused on working with leaders on the development of the inner plane, in service of new formations of generative leadership practice.
From 2011 her work also turned to integrating yogic wisdom through body-based constellations. Rooting back in her time with the TRC, another stream of her work is focused on questions of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in organisations, and in schools)
As a constellations trainer Undine is offering training workshops and supervision for groups and individuals. She was also part of the pioneering training team that hosted the first Family Constellations Training in Zimbabwe 2019-2022 and is currently training a group in Cape Town.

My name is Cathy Geils. I have a PhD in the field of constellations work, transpersonal psychology and consciousness transformation. I have been facilitating constellations work since 2014.
My professional training is in clinical psychology. I spent the first 13-14 years of my psychology career in public hospitals and community clinics in South Africa. I was involved in training and supervising primarily intern psychologists, but also psychiatry registrars and teaching psychology to other health practitioners such as medical doctors, occupational therapists and physiotherapists. I published several journal articles and presented at conferences in South Africa and overseas.
Since 2017 I have been in private practice. During this time I completed my PhD, supervised clinical psychology masters students and honed my practice and understanding of constellations work, learning how to integrate it with other therapeutic modalities and techniques.
I will be offering foundation training in constellations work in KZN in 2024. Please contact me for more information.
