We think of ourselves as individuals who have problems, not recognizing how we mindlessly repeat the grief, guilt and aggression that runs through our families. Dan brings intuition, knowledge, and compassion to resolve the wounds that exert a powerful, automatic influence on our thoughts, feelings and actions.

A Constellation begins with a pressing personal issue. In less than an hour, the process reveals something essential that is immediately understood. The experience provides life-changing insight into the hidden roots of depression, addiction, sibling estrangements, money problems, child custody conflicts, and chronic loneliness. Constellations are especially effective when the circumstances of your problems change, but the fundamental pattern remains the same. It's not about changing what you think. A Constellation heals a part of the wounded Self that "thinks you."

About 80% of participants report afterwards that the issue has eased or even resolved completely. Full resolution of a particular issue can take months to unfold, but the release itself occurs in a profound moment of insight. Despite years of sorrow and pain, a broken heart can heal in one beat.

Constellations are neither psychotherapy nor a spiritual practice. It is hard to appreciate how different this is from more familiar approaches to problem solving. The process works by repairing the broken heart connection between parents and children and by opening the door of compassion to whoever has been left out.

Dan works with Constellation in groups, individual sessions, and by telephone. Please feel free to email Dan with questions or to schedule an individual session. The price of an individual Constellation is $150.

Even the Most Serious Problems Contains a Hidden Solution

Dan regularly facilitates Constellations throughout the U.S. for private clients, at professional conferences and in healing communities such as the Esalen Institute. Dan uses his specialized training, skill, and intuition to reach the Love that is at the core of every tragedy. Once you make contact with this love, it is yours to keep. It will slowly ease your burden and guide you towards growth and satisfaction.

Each Constellation begins with the premise that when someone says, “I have a problem that I cannot overcome,” the frame of the problem is too narrow to contain the solution. Constellations aim to widen the frame by asking, “Whose problem was it before it was yours?” Beyond the oft-told story of what happened, who is to blame, and whose feelings are hurt, is an invisible connection with older injuries and losses. When the connection is seen, understood, and accepted, the energy that fuels the current problem is transformed. People immediately feel lighter and suddenly free to solve the problem on their own.
