Thank you Vinay, this is such a great take on it. The question of supervision and doing one's own work is really at the heart of many misuses or entanglements in a number of modalities, not only FC. Energy work, shamanism, etc are all subjects to the same issues. There is no simple solution to this, I'm afraid, as ultimately it comes down to personal sense of accountability and willingness to consider peers criticism or suggestions, as well as to accept the reality of our own blind spots.
Very grateful for this thread and everyone's willingness to look at this honestly.

Firstly, there is in spiritual traditions, some history of the use of violence. For instance, the stick of the Zen master. But this is obviously always very delicate. If the Zen master is 100% clear, with no ego at at, and uses the stick in a way which is completely in the Tao, perfect in the moment, then it can help in the process of ‘waking up’ a practitioner.
However, in the hands of anyone else, that stick is simply either traumatising at worst, or a kind of boot camp monitor's ‘dont sleep in meditation’ at best.
The trouble is, there are few people at that enlightened point where they can use ‘the stick’ in such a way.
So in most instances, it comes with some ego, and creates at least some trauma. Though I guess a very serious spiritual adherent could use the pain in some way for their own transcendence practice.
But family constellations is not an exclusively spiritual practice, and facilitators are not in the role specifically of spiritual teachers. Hellinger may elevate himself (and Sophie) to such a role, or people may want to place him in such a role, and then the question would be, are he - and she - able to fulfil such roles in an enlightened way.
My own judgement is that Hellinger is a profoundly spiritual man, with deep realisation, but certainly not enlightened. So I think that much of the time his effect is spiritual as much as psychological. And I also think that at times, his ego can get in the way. And when combined with violence, that can have a bad effect. Sophie, I dont believe has much of a level of spiritual realisation, and therefore her interventions on this level are more ego based, and therefore potentially more damaging.
I think its important to exercise this kind of judgment ('discrimination' in yogic terms) when evaluating the actions of people who want their teachings to be accepted as spiritual guidance, which Bert and Sophie clearly are asking.
The complexity of this situation is added to because FC falls ostensibly in the sphere of a psychological practice; this arena does not have room for claims of spiritual leadership. The facilitator is a skilled practitioner, who applies knowledge and theory of human dynamics in a careful, professionally ethical, and respectful manner. Hellnger started as a priest - the role of spiritual guide, then moved into the psychological arena. Family constellations is a synthesis of a range of elements, including shamanistic ones. The shaman is not a psychological facilitator, but more in an authority role - similar in that sense to a priest, and invoking the need for complete trust on the part of the client. Where such authority is used with complete benevolence, then even painful rituals may be transformative. But a little ego, and such power can become abusive.
So again, I think the evaluation of the amount of ego (and self blindness) which occurs in the the authority-component of family constellations is essential - not simply requiring trust (blind obedience) on the part of the client/group.
The FC field has allowed practitioners in who have zero psychological background, and I know on this list we have had discussions about this. Because its not solely a psychological practice, it can be learned - and effectively performed - by people who draw on their life experience, their own level of development, and perhaps other claims to the skills involved.
I know there are many facilitators on this list who do not have specific psychological training, and yet are excellent practitioners. So the issue of qualifications, training, etc, is a complex one.
However, this is a case where I think a lack of quality psychological training becomes an obstacle to good practice. I do not know Sophie’s training. None of the blurbs on her mention this. They simply give her the status as Bert’s wife, and some cotton wool besides that. She claims being a ‘counsellor’ as a result of the time with Bert.
Yes, in many ways, she could claim having undertaken a mentorship-type of training with Bert. However, this is obviously fraught, as being trained by your husband has its blind sides.
Part of what a good therapy training involves is many hours of ones own therapy, and many hours of supervision. I do not know if Sophie has undergone either of these - and the supervision of her husband is such a dual role that its definitely limited.
So I think theres a problem with her appointment by him to the role she plays, without any other kind of training on her part.
When I was running my Gestalt institute, my wife and I would attend some of the public workshops run by visiting presenters. One of them, a friend of mine, made a comment, that this was problematic, as it was like the ‘king and queen visiting’. That is, we couldnt just be participants, our roles were too set by the other context. And my wife was essentially ‘appointed’ to that position by virtue of her association with me - and this was simpy as participants.
I think theres this same kind of issue with Sophie. Appointment of people to a therapy-type role and a position of authority is problematic, because it bypasses training.
If you look at what the Hellinger website says about her:'Sophie Hellinger is an extraordinary woman, wife, mother and grandmother. Her many sides and appearances make it difficult to describe her in words.
She has been active in the counseling area for already decades. The areas of application of the seminars conducted by Sophie Hellinger really have a unique characteristic.
The powerful and esteeming attention which the clients can experience with her, create confidence in life itself.
The people able to surrender to her know how to appreciate her abilities and her open manner, which is very direct and clear. In each case she takes people to their light and shadow side - their integrity, which is often experienced as something like an earthquake. It is an extraordinary event which shows connections that go deeper and beyond the limited mental imagination.
She easily transcends barriers and leads into levels of solutions which are alienated from common consciousness, although they make one take notice.
Her knowledge and skill extend from professional career movements to topics on heath, be it psychic or physical, and many other areas of life, as well as passed ones.
Through her unique gift, strengthened by her always present interest and openness, paired with experience and enormous knowledge, Sophie Hellinger disposes of an almost eerie-like divination in relation to spiritual, physical and inter-personal suffering. Thus she is able to constantly show us an image which allows and provides inner and external growth within a safe context. To what she connects her potential or from what source she takes her energy is kept hidden to the spectator. It often resembles magic.'
We can see that her claims to status rely on not much professional substance, apart from having been with Bert. ‘Active in the counselling area’ is entirely based on her time with Bert, as her sole trainer. The use of the word ‘surrender’ suggests the theme of spiritual teacher. ‘Transcending barriers’ is a very problematic term from the point of view of professional ethics, and suggests that this is not a reference point for her. Again, the claims to divination, and magic suggest either that of a shaman or spiritual teacher, which is a strong claim, and dangerous without sufficient preparation and training and humility - factors which I dont think can be entirely supplied by her husband.
The trouble is, in the minds of the general public, this is just as much FC, as anything else - and the destructive components of ego-based authority become associated with FC in general.
But moving away from Bert and Sophie, I think these are wider issues for our community of facilitators in general. The claim to authority - intepretive authority for instance - can be problematic from a psychological point of view, as this can work against the very phenomenological approach which family constellations claims to take. And the criticisms here of Bert and Sophie can be relevant to any of us, to the degree we use our power as facitilators without sufficient awareness.
So the discussion can open up this direction of exploration as well, to good effect I hope.

Messages1aRe: Orders of love and trauma Tue Apr 18, 2017 6:53 pm (PDT) . Posted by: "Anne Beversdorf" annebeversdorf I have an associate who recounted to me a story of attending a workshop in
Germany where Hellinger replaced the representative for Father and faced the
young man who would not respect his father. and Bert hit they guy very hard
in the chest. My friend said he imagines it was Bert's own issues breaking
through and that he probably felt badly about it after, but who knows. And I
have had potential clients saying they've seen some material about the
Hellinger work that she found hierarchical and threatening and wasn't sure
about participating.
It makes me wonder again about the different stages of his work. I started
practice in the early 2000's, before he had fully moved into the 'movement
only' work, not to mention stuff that came later. I know, in constellations,
it is not my role to force issues on anyone. Period. I generally feel very
good about the self-respect and positive feelings that come to most of the
participants and clients in constellations. I have twice had clients that
refused to see the results, denying the experiences of the representatives
(and my observations) to be in any way meaningful. My response (yes,
internal frustration) is to explain that the work is done with the response
of participants to the energy of the family situation. If that work by many
participants does not speak to client, I can't change the work.
My answer to queries about Bert's practices is that I cannot participate in
anything that coerces people and feel sure they will feel safe.

Yes, I could not believe my eyes. The girl was hit with a microphone, and
quite hard. Yet what was happening before was also forced. It was visible
that mother and daughter were connected before Sophie was trying to force
some words on the daughter. The mother smiled, the daughter was chatting
with her. Then they became more and more rigid and disconnected. If there
was trauma there, then more trauma has been added. It was also brake of
trust, I wonder if this girl will be open to any therapy in the future.
This was not what Family Constellations is about as it was not love (and no
compassion), even no respect, and definitely nothing from the Knowing
Field. It was just acting from the power and superiority.
When it comes to the TRUTH, nobody holds it. The person can be hold by the
TRUTH when he or she is open to it. Then the TRUTH speaks through him /
her. We can call TRUTH different names, God, or Spirit or just
Unconditional Love, or Universe. Unfortunately, the individuals who are
touch by TRUTH quite offer become grandiose and take it for their personal
greatness. And this is how they loose connection with TRUTH. Or there are
some other reasons, sickness or old age, and they forget. The TRUTH stays
and evolves, and we can be always grateful to them for showing us the way,
even if they do not lead anymore.
Thank you fo sharing.

Watching this is also rather dirturbing to me. What comes to my mind is that human conduct is ever unreliable. The way the "constellation" was facilitated was full of ego and without any respect and sensitivity from both Sophie and Bert.
for those who don't understand German or Russian I give the German translation:
Sophie forces the young woman to say to her mother: "You are here the big one". The daughter says to Sophie that she cannot say it, because she has so many problems. Still Sophie tries to force her. After the daughter becomes more irritated Sophie tries the same procedure with the mother. She orders her to say to the daughter: "You are here the little one". She can't say it either. Sophie says "You HAVE TO honour the hierarchy", then being frustrated walkes away. Bert says "This was a good demonstration what it means to violate the hierarchy (ranking system)." Then someone of the group says something and Bert asks three times. "Who was talking here?". When he sees the woman he says "Get out of the door!" Then he says to all: "We don't tolerate it if someone arrogates to intervene here!"Sitting down he says two times: "Now I made clear WHO is the big one here!" Sophie says: "It's about life and death. TO VIOLATE THE HIERARCHY IS LEADING TO DEATH". ....... (resulting in dead silence)
We all make mistakes. But in my opinion the attitude that was demonstrated here is very harmful to the wonderful gift of constellation work.

Dear ones,
I have been wanting to connect with you about this for some months… Someone sent me a video from Bert which I find quite disturbing. Since then, I have mixed feelings... I would really appreciate you let me know your feelings/thoughts about it.
We know the truth he - and Sophie - are holding and yet, in my heart, and as a trauma therapist, I can’t accept this violence, which also seems unnecessary. There is some kind of fundamentalism about the orders of love that seems to be very disconnected. I really wonder about the effects this has… I could say more, but I would really love if you could let me know what your thoughts are… The video is in German and Russian… but if you can’t understand the words, at least you can see the faces and the moment Sophie hits a participant with the microphone, and, afterwards Bert sends out someone who complains about this...

I did not understand the words, I just saw the body language, the tone of
the voice and the action.
There is something I have to say, "
*TO VIOLATE THE HIERARCHY IS LEADING TO DEATH". Yes, this is the case,
especially in totalitarian regime. Many people sacrificed their lives
challenging hierarchy. Do we call them heroes? Hierarchy has to be
challenged when it goes wrong. Otherwise we would be like a herd of sheep
blindly following the main ram. This leads to death and destruction, and
even genocide. *
*I am not saying that against Bert or or to undermine his past greatness. I
honor him and his attribution to humanity. It just seems that his Soul is
not connected with his body and mind anymore. He is an old man now and a
human, like we all. We will all get old and we may lose this connection.
What is surprising that anybody still stayed inside the room... Somehow, we
do behave like a herd of sheep...*
*With Love*
*Joanna*

The constellation takes place in Russia.
The constellation is done sitting down in a row of seating behind another row of seated people.
This location gives a sense of being cramped and not allotted the proper space for whatever issue is addressed.
The facilitator stands and moves around while the representatives sit and cannot move much, the height difference.
At some point there is some jovial rapport between the two representatives.
The facilitator does a lot of finger pointing.
The daughter's representative is locked in a long look with the facilitator, looking up at her with a set and closed face. She gets hit on the head by the facilitator with the mike (an instrument of power).
The sitting women have no support, male or otherwise. The female facilitator HAS support from a male.
The male steps in and sends another woman out of the room.
Words of life and death are spoken.
Some interpretation: The constellation has become a Russia issue. Russia has a very long history of repression, first in the history of serfdom and later in the history of communism. As Hunter Beaumont explained in one of his workshops, in many countries that suffer violence, the men become decimated through war and other terrors. The women have to become the survivors and strong in carrying on.
The constellation shows three kind of reactions to tyranny: the ones that disappear, the ones that try to cooperate (mother’s rep) and the ones that rebel. Sophie and Bert were part of that constellation.

Dear ones,
I have been wanting to connect with you about this for some months… Someone sent me a video from Bert which I find quite disturbing. Since then, I have mixed feelings... I would really appreciate you let me know your feelings/thoughts about it.
We know the truth he - and Sophie - are holding and yet, in my heart, and as a trauma therapist, I can’t accept this violence, which also seems unnecessary. There is some kind of fundamentalism about the orders of love that seems to be very disconnected. I really wonder about the effects this has… I could say more, but I would really love if you could let me know what your thoughts are… The video is in German and Russian… but if you can’t understand the words, at least you can see the faces and the moment Sophie hits a participant with the microphone, and, afterwards Bert sends out someone who complains about this...

very personal book about that), I'm also grateful for this discussion.
While I have sometimes ultimately gained a great deal from moments of
forcefulness from a facilitator, I do feel that it appears the client was
put in a primal survival/soul conflict here The mother reps leaning into
the client's space with needs that were oblivious to the clients reaction
were energetically aggressively (predatory) - though at moments loving.
And it appeared to me that instinctually the client wanted to push away
(fight) and run (flee) rather than (collapse) and submit energetically
(die). And then she was attacked with the microphone...
It is Hellinger 101, but perhaps suggesting they stand and find their
places and then giving the mother some resources might have allowed a next
step to unfold.
I do also know that there is the story of years ago H wrestling a very tall
much younger man to the ground for not bowing to his father. Years later
that man was a sensitive rep of my grandfather in a constellation.
So for me one of the questions that comes out of this excellent discussion
involves the interface of instinctual response, ego narrative protection
and soul movement. Jan Crawford
