Frequently Asked Questions

On Family Constellations

  • Family Constellations is a therapeutic approach that explores how unresolved experiences within a family system can influence present day emotional patterns, relationships, and wellbeing. Developed by Bert Hellinger, the method works with the understanding that individuals are deeply connected to their family lineage, often carrying unconscious loyalties or inherited emotional burdens.

    In a Family Constellations session, these hidden dynamics are brought into awareness through a structured process that reveals the deeper patterns operating beneath the surface. When these patterns are acknowledged and reorganised, the nervous system can release long held tension, allowing greater clarity, emotional freedom, and healthier relationships to emerge.

  • Family Constellations can be helpful for people who notice repeating patterns in their lives that feel difficult to change through insight alone. This may include ongoing relationship challenges, family conflict, feelings of exclusion or disconnection, unresolved grief, anxiety, or a sense of carrying burdens that feel older than one’s own life story. Many people also explore this work when they feel blocked in areas such as intimacy, career, finances, or belonging.

    The process can support individuals who are curious about the influence of family history and who are open to exploring emotional and relational patterns within a structured therapeutic setting.

    Family Constellations is not suitable for people experiencing acute psychiatric crisis, active psychosis, or severe dissociation, and it may not be appropriate for those currently in the early stages of stabilising severe trauma without additional therapeutic support. It is designed as a reflective and experiential process rather than a medical or psychiatric treatment. If someone is currently under medical or psychological care, it is advisable to discuss participation with their healthcare provider.

  • Yes. Family Constellations can be just as effective online as it is in person. In an online session, the same systemic process is used, often with guided visualisation, objects, or symbolic representations to explore family dynamics and emotional patterns.

    Many facilitators now work successfully in virtual settings, allowing people to access this work from anywhere in the world while remaining in the comfort of their own home.

    Research on Family Constellations more broadly suggests the method can improve wellbeing and psychological distress for many participants, although more large-scale studies are still needed.

    For many people, the depth of insight and emotional shift available in an online constellation is comparable to an in-person experience when guided by a skilled facilitator.

  • Online Family Constellations sessions follow the same principles as in person work. The process explores how patterns within a family system may be influencing present day experiences, relationships, and emotional responses.

    During an online session, we use guided visualisation and symbolic representation to map elements of the family system. This may involve using objects, spatial positioning, or simple markers to represent family members or key dynamics. In my session we use simple paper triangles, which are remarkably effective. As the constellation unfolds, underlying patterns can become visible and new perspectives can emerge.

    Although participants are not physically in the same room, the systemic process still allows hidden dynamics to surface and reorganise. Many people find that working from the privacy of their own home allows them to relax more deeply and engage fully with the experience.

  • In a group Family Constellations workshop, one person brings a question or challenge they would like to explore. This might relate to family relationships, recurring life patterns, emotional struggles, or a sense of being stuck in a particular area of life.

    The facilitator then invites other participants in the group to represent members of that person’s family system or key elements connected to the issue. These representatives are positioned within the space to form the constellation.

    As the constellation unfolds, the representatives often begin to experience sensations, emotions, or impulses that reflect the dynamics within the family system. This process can reveal hidden loyalties, exclusions, or unresolved events that may be influencing the person’s present day life.

    Through gentle adjustments and acknowledgements within the constellation, the system can move toward a more balanced arrangement. Many participants find that seeing these dynamics externally brings a deeper understanding of patterns that previously felt confusing or difficult to explain.

  • Family Constellations can be used to explore patterns that feel difficult to explain or change through insight alone. Many people turn to this work when they notice repeating dynamics in relationships, emotional reactions that seem disproportionate to the present moment, or a persistent sense of being blocked in certain areas of life.

    It is commonly used to explore family conflict, relationship difficulties, unresolved grief, feelings of exclusion or not belonging, and patterns related to intimacy, parenting, or separation. Some people also use it to understand recurring challenges around work, financial stability, or personal direction.

    By revealing how experiences within a family system may still be influencing the present, the process can bring greater clarity and allow long standing patterns to shift in a more natural way.

  • No. Family Constellations and Internal Family Systems (IFS) are different approaches, although both recognise that human experience is shaped by relationships and internal dynamics.

    Family Constellations focuses on the wider family system. It explores how unresolved events, exclusions, or emotional burdens within a family lineage may influence present day patterns in relationships, health, or life direction.

    Internal Family Systems, developed by Richard Schwartz, works with the idea that the mind contains different “parts” or subpersonalities, such as protective or wounded aspects of the self. The therapy helps these internal parts come into a more balanced relationship with one another.

    In simple terms, Internal Family Systems focuses on the internal psychological system, while Family Constellations explores the relational system that exists across generations. Both approaches aim to restore balance, but they work at different levels of the human experience.

On Rapid Core Healing

  • Rapid Core Healing is a therapeutic approach that combines elements of hypnotherapy, inner child work, and systemic principles inspired by Family Constellations. It is designed to help people identify and release deeply held emotional patterns that were often formed during earlier life experiences.

    During a session, the client is guided into a relaxed, focused state that allows the mind and nervous system to access memories, beliefs, and emotional imprints that may be operating beneath conscious awareness. From this state, it becomes possible to revisit formative experiences, update limiting beliefs, and process unresolved emotions in a safe and structured way.

    The aim of Rapid Core Healing is not simply to analyse the past, but to help the nervous system reorganise how it responds to those experiences, allowing new emotional responses and behavioural patterns to emerge.

    Learn more here.

  • Rapid Core Healing works by guiding the client into a deeply relaxed, focused state similar to hypnosis. In this state, the mind becomes more receptive to exploring the emotional patterns and beliefs that were formed during earlier experiences, particularly in childhood.

    Many of the reactions we have in adult life are shaped by these early emotional imprints. When the nervous system encounters a situation that resembles a past experience, it can respond automatically, often before the rational mind has time to intervene.

    During a session, the process gently identifies the earlier moments where these patterns first formed. Through guided therapeutic dialogue and inner child work, the client is able to revisit these experiences, process unresolved emotions, and update the beliefs that were created at the time.

    Through memory reconsolidation, the aim is to help the nervous system recognise that the original threat or situation is no longer present. As this shift occurs, many people notice changes in emotional responses, behaviour, and relationship patterns in the weeks that follow.

  • Rapid Core Healing can be helpful for people who feel that certain emotional reactions, relationship patterns, or self limiting beliefs continue to repeat despite conscious effort to change them. Many clients seek this work when they notice persistent anxiety, low self worth, difficulty with boundaries, relationship challenges, or emotional responses that seem disproportionate to the present moment.

    It is often particularly supportive for people who recognise that early life experiences or childhood emotional wounds may still be influencing how they respond to stress, intimacy, or conflict. By working with these earlier imprints, the process can help update the beliefs and emotional responses that were formed at that time.

    Rapid Core Healing is not suitable for people experiencing active psychosis, severe dissociation, or an acute psychiatric crisis. It is a therapeutic coaching process rather than a medical or psychiatric treatment, and it is best undertaken when a person has sufficient emotional stability to engage with reflective inner work. If someone is currently under medical or psychological care, it may be helpful to discuss participation with their healthcare provider.

  • nner child work is a therapeutic approach that focuses on the early emotional experiences that shape how we relate to ourselves, other people, and the world. Many of the beliefs we carry about safety, love, worth, and belonging are formed in childhood, often before we have the ability to fully understand or process what is happening around us.

    When difficult experiences occur during these formative years, the emotional responses can remain stored in the nervous system. Later in life, certain situations may activate these earlier imprints, leading to reactions that feel intense or confusing in the present moment.

    Rapid Core Healing incorporates inner child work as a central part of the process. During a session, the client is guided into a relaxed and focused state where it becomes easier to access early memories and emotional patterns. From this place, the client can revisit formative experiences, process unresolved emotions, and update the beliefs that were created at that time.

    The aim is to help the nervous system recognise that those earlier experiences are no longer occurring, allowing new emotional responses and healthier patterns to develop in the present.

  • Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses a deeply relaxed and focused state of attention to help the mind access thoughts, memories, and beliefs that sit beneath everyday awareness. In this state, the nervous system is calmer and the mind becomes more receptive to exploring emotional patterns and updating long held beliefs.

    During hypnotherapy, the client remains aware and in control throughout the process. The experience is often similar to the relaxed state people enter when they are absorbed in a book, meditation, or daydream.

    Rapid Core Healing incorporates elements of hypnotherapy to help clients access the underlying emotional patterns that were formed during earlier life experiences. By working with the mind in this relaxed state, it becomes easier to revisit formative moments, process unresolved emotions, and reshape the beliefs that were created at the time.

  • Rapid Core Healing is a relatively new therapeutic approach, so large scale clinical research specifically on the method itself is still limited. It was developed by psychotherapist Yildiz Sethi and combines several established psychological approaches, including hypnotherapy, Family Constellations, and other therapeutic frameworks designed to address emotional patterns and trauma at their root.

    While research on Rapid Core Healing as a specific modality is still emerging, some of the methods it draws from have a growing evidence base. For example, studies show that hypnosis based therapies can support improvements in emotional regulation, anxiety, and mental health outcomes. Research also suggests that hypnotherapy may help reduce trauma related symptoms such as intrusive memories, avoidance, and sleep disturbance.

    In practice, many people report meaningful changes in emotional patterns, relationships, and self limiting beliefs after working with approaches that combine subconscious work and trauma informed therapy. Rapid Core Healing is designed to work at this deeper level, helping the nervous system process earlier emotional experiences rather than only analysing them intellectually.

    Like any therapeutic process, results vary from person to person. Its effectiveness often depends on factors such as the client’s readiness for inner work, the nature of the issue being addressed, and the skill of the practitioner guiding the process.

  • No. Rapid Core Healing and Rapid Transformational Therapy are different therapeutic approaches, although both use elements of hypnotherapy.

    Rapid Transformational Therapy, developed by Marisa Peer, focuses primarily on identifying and changing limiting beliefs through hypnosis and suggestion. The process is typically centred on reframing beliefs formed in earlier life experiences.

    Rapid Core Healing, developed by Yildiz Sethi, takes a broader approach. It combines hypnotherapy with inner child work and systemic principles inspired by Family Constellations. In addition to working with beliefs, it explores how emotional patterns may be connected to earlier relational experiences and family dynamics.

    Both approaches work with the subconscious mind, but Rapid Core Healing places greater emphasis on resolving emotional wounds and relational patterns at their source.

  • Talk therapy usually works through conversation, reflection, and insight. Over time, this process can help people understand their experiences, recognise patterns in their behaviour, and develop new ways of thinking about challenges.

    Rapid Core Healing works in a different way. Rather than focusing primarily on analysing experiences through discussion, it helps access the emotional memories and beliefs that sit beneath conscious awareness. These patterns often formed during earlier life experiences and can influence how the nervous system reacts in the present.

    During a Rapid Core Healing session, the client is guided into a relaxed and focused state that allows these deeper patterns to be explored and updated. The aim is not simply to understand why something developed, but to help the nervous system release the emotional imprint that keeps the pattern repeating.

    Both approaches can be valuable at different points of the healing journey. Talk therapy often builds insight and emotional understanding over time, while Rapid Core Healing focuses on working more directly with the underlying emotional patterns that shape behaviour and relationships.

On Couples Constellations

  • Couples Constellations is a form of systemic work that explores the deeper dynamics influencing a relationship. Rather than focusing only on communication or behaviour, it looks at how each partner’s family system, early experiences, and unconscious loyalties may be shaping the relationship.

    In a session, the relationship is explored through a constellation process that reveals underlying patterns that may not be visible through conversation alone. These patterns can include inherited family roles, unresolved events in previous generations, or emotional dynamics that partners unknowingly bring into the relationship.

    By making these influences visible, Couples Constellations can help both partners understand each other with greater clarity and compassion. The process often allows new perspectives to emerge and can support healthier, more balanced ways of relating.

  • Couples Constellations helps partners understand the deeper dynamics that may be influencing their relationship. Many conflicts that appear to be about communication, habits, or personality differences are often shaped by earlier experiences or family system patterns that each partner carries into the relationship.

    Through the constellation process, these underlying influences can become visible. Partners often begin to see how unconscious loyalties, unresolved family dynamics, or early attachment experiences may be affecting how they relate to one another.

    When these patterns are acknowledged, it can create space for greater understanding, compassion, and emotional safety between partners. Many couples find that the process helps reduce recurring conflict, improves communication, and allows them to relate to each other with more clarity and respect.

  • Couples talk therapy usually focuses on communication, behaviour, and helping partners understand each other through conversation. A therapist may guide couples in learning new ways to express needs, resolve conflict, and build healthier patterns of interaction over time.

    Couples Constellations works in a different way. Rather than focusing only on what is happening between the two partners in the present, it explores the wider systems that influence the relationship. This includes family dynamics, early attachment experiences, and unconscious loyalties that each partner may carry from their family of origin.

    The constellation process can reveal patterns that are often difficult to recognise through discussion alone. When these deeper dynamics become visible, couples often gain a clearer understanding of why certain patterns repeat and how the relationship can move into a more balanced position.

  • Couples Constellations can be helpful for partners who feel stuck in repeating patterns that are difficult to change through communication alone. Many couples seek this work when they notice ongoing conflict, emotional distance, recurring misunderstandings, or a sense that the relationship keeps returning to the same unresolved issues.

    It can also be valuable for couples who want to better understand how their family backgrounds, early attachment experiences, and unconscious loyalties may be influencing the way they relate to one another.

    Couples Constellations is suitable for partners who are willing to approach the relationship with openness and curiosity, even when the patterns feel complex.

    It may not be appropriate in situations involving active domestic violence, severe psychological instability, or when one partner is unwilling to participate respectfully in the process. The work is designed to support understanding and relational balance rather than to replace medical, legal, or psychiatric care.

  • Couples Constellations is informed by several fields of research that explore how relationships, family systems, and early life experiences shape human behaviour and emotional responses.

    One important area is attachment theory, developed by John Bowlby and later expanded by Mary Ainsworth. Attachment research shows that the emotional bonds formed in early childhood strongly influence how people experience intimacy, trust, and conflict in adult relationships.

    The work is also aligned with insights from systemic family therapy, which studies how individuals function within relational systems rather than in isolation. From this perspective, relationship patterns are often influenced by dynamics within the wider family structure.

    Research in trauma science and nervous system regulation also contributes to this understanding. Studies in neuroscience and stress physiology show that unresolved emotional experiences can become embedded in the autonomic nervous system, shaping how people respond to perceived threat, closeness, and emotional stress in relationships.

    Finally, growing research in epigenetics and transgenerational trauma suggests that stress and trauma can influence biological and psychological patterns across generations. This research provides a framework for understanding why certain emotional responses or relational patterns may feel deeply ingrained even when they do not appear to originate in the present relationship.

    Together, these fields help explain why exploring relational patterns at both the personal and family system level can bring greater clarity and change within intimate relationships.

On Asterian Astrology

  • Asterian astrology is a system of astrology that combines the sidereal framework of Vedic astrology with the archetypal symbolism of Greek mythology. It is based on the idea that astrology should follow the actual positions of the stars and constellations rather than a seasonal zodiac that has drifted away from the sky over time.

    In this system, the zodiac is understood through 27 stellar archetypes, each associated with a mythological figure such as Zeus, Artemis, Prometheus, or Hecate. These archetypes correspond to the traditional Vedic lunar mansions, known as nakshatras, but are interpreted through Greco Roman mythological stories that illustrate their psychological and symbolic themes.

    The approach reflects the historical exchange between Greek and Indian astrological traditions following the spread of Hellenistic knowledge into the East. By combining these traditions, Asterian astrology aims to provide a more direct connection between planetary placements, mythological archetypes, and the lived patterns of human personality and destiny.

    In practice, Asterian astrology focuses on the star or archetype that the planets occupies at birth, using these mythic patterns to explore character, life themes, and personal development.

  • Asterian astrology differs from Western astrology primarily in how it defines the zodiac and interprets the stars.

    Western astrology typically uses the tropical zodiac, which is based on the seasons rather than the current positions of the constellations in the sky. Over thousands of years, the Earth’s axial precession has caused the constellations and the seasonal zodiac to drift apart. As a result, the signs used in Western astrology no longer correspond precisely with the actual star positions.

    Asterian astrology instead follows a sidereal framework, meaning it aligns the zodiac with the real constellations and the observable movement of the planets through the stars. This approach reflects how ancient cultures such as the Babylonians, Egyptians, and early Greek astronomer astrologers originally practiced astrology by observing the sky directly.

    Another difference is interpretive. Western astrology divides the zodiac into twelve signs, while Asterian astrology emphasises twenty seven stellar archetypes, corresponding to the traditional Vedic lunar mansions. Each of these stars is associated with a mythological figure drawn from Greek and Roman mythology, which provides a narrative framework for understanding personality traits and life themes.

    In essence, Western astrology is largely a seasonal symbolic system, while Asterian astrology aims to reconnect astrological interpretation with the actual stars and their mythological archetypes.

  • Asterian astrology is considered more accurate by its practitioners because it is based on the actual positions of the stars and constellations, rather than a seasonal zodiac. The system follows a sidereal framework, which tracks the movement of the planets through the real constellations in the sky.

    Western astrology generally uses the tropical zodiac, which is tied to the seasons rather than the stars. Due to the gradual wobble of the Earth’s axis, known as the precession of the equinoxes, the tropical zodiac has shifted significantly from the constellations over the past two thousand years. As a result, the zodiac signs used in Western astrology no longer align with the actual stellar positions they originally represented.

    Asterian astrology also adds another layer of precision by working with 27 stellar archetypes, which correspond to the traditional lunar mansions used in ancient sidereal astrology. These smaller divisions of the sky allow for a more detailed interpretation of planetary placements and personality patterns.

    Because the system aligns with the stars themselves and uses a more finely divided zodiac, its proponents believe it can describe personality, life themes, and timing with greater specificity

  • I am currently studying Asterian astrology directly under Jade Sol Luna, who refined and popularised the Asterian system in its current form.

    Jade’s work bridges the sidereal framework used in ancient astrology with Greco Roman mythological archetypes, drawing on traditions that trace back to Babylonian, Greek, and Vedic sources.

    Because I am studying directly with him, the training comes from the most authentic source currently teaching this system in the West. The readings I offer combine this rigorous astrological framework with my broader work in naturopathy, trauma healing, and mind body medicine.

  • Asterian astrology shares an important foundation with Vedic astrology because both systems use a sidereal zodiac, which aligns the chart with the actual positions of the stars rather than the seasonal zodiac used in Western astrology. Both traditions also recognise twenty seven stellar divisions of the sky, often referred to as lunar mansions or nakshatras. 27

    Where Asterian astrology differs is primarily in its interpretive language and symbolism. While Vedic astrology traditionally describes these stars through Hindu deities and mythological narratives, Asterian astrology interprets the same stellar divisions through Greco Roman mythological archetypes, such as Zeus, Artemis, Prometheus, and Hecate.

    Both Vedic astrology and Asterian astrology are complete astrological system that includes predictive techniques, planetary periods, and complex timing methods. Asterian astrology potentially focuses more strongly on the psychological and archetypal meaning of the stars themselves, using mythological symbolism to illuminate personality patterns and life themes.

    In essence, both systems look at the same sky. Vedic astrology interprets the stars through the lens of Indian mythology and classical Jyotish techniques, while Asterian astrology interprets them through Greco Roman mythological archetypes and possibly a more archetypal psychological framework.

  • Asterian astrology can offer insight into the deeper patterns that shape a person’s temperament, emotional responses, and life themes. By looking at the star placements in your natal chart, the system explores the archetypal influences that may shape how someone experiences relationships, purpose, stress, and personal growth.

    Each of the twenty seven stars is associated with a mythological archetype that reflects particular strengths, challenges, and developmental themes. Understanding these patterns can help people recognise parts of themselves that may previously have felt confusing or contradictory. This awareness often creates a foundation for greater self acceptance and clearer direction in personal development.

    In a healing context, this perspective can complement therapeutic work by helping people understand why certain emotional patterns or life experiences repeat. When someone sees their tendencies reflected through the lens of archetypal patterns, it can make personal struggles feel more understandable and less isolating.

    Asterian astrology can support self inquiry, deepen awareness of personal patterns, and help people approach healing work with a clearer understanding of their natural strengths and challenges.

On Working with Camilla

  • The number of sessions varies from person to person and depends on the nature of the issue(s) being explored. Some people find that a single session brings important insight or a meaningful shift in a particular pattern. Others choose to continue with several sessions to work through different layers of a long standing issue.

    Emotional patterns often develop over many years, so meaningful change can unfold gradually as the nervous system integrates new experiences and perspectives.

    For this reason, some clients prefer to begin with a single session to explore the process, while others choose a structured series of sessions to support deeper work over time.

  • I bring together training in naturopathy, nutrition, and trauma informed therapeutic approaches. I hold a Bachelor of Health Science (BHSc) in Naturopathy with Distinction and a Graduate Certificate in Human Nutrition, and I have over fifteen years of experience working in the wellness field, with more than seven years in clinical practice.

    Alongside my clinical training, I have undertaken professional training in Systemic Family Constellations, including advanced systemic constellations training for business, health, and relationship constellations. I am also trained in Rapid Core Healing and Emotional Mind Integration, approaches that work with the subconscious mind and nervous system to process emotional patterns and trauma. I have completed many other trainings related to mind-body medicine, including being a certified Kundalini Yoga Instructor with Level 1 and Level 2 certifications.

    This combination allows me to support clients through an integrated lens that considers the mind, nervous system, family system, and physical health, rather than focusing on any single aspect of wellbeing.

  • My work brings together several disciplines that are rarely integrated in the same practice. Alongside my training in Family Constellations and Rapid Core Healing, I am also a naturopath and nutrition practitioner. This allows me to understand emotional patterns not only from a psychological perspective, but also through the lens of nervous system regulation, physiology, and whole body health.

    I work with approaches that focus on the deeper structures beneath symptoms. Rather than analysing problems only at the level of thoughts or behaviour, the work explores how early life experiences, family system dynamics, and the nervous system itself shape emotional responses and relational patterns.

    My approach is also informed by personal experience and many years working with clients navigating complex emotional and health challenges. The aim is to create a thoughtful, grounded space where both emotional and physical aspects of wellbeing can be explored together.

  • You can book a session or get in touch through the bookings page on this website. From there you can view available appointments and reserve a time for a private session or upcoming workshop.

    If you have questions before booking, you are welcome to reach out through the contact form on the site. I will respond as soon as possible to help you decide whether the work is right for you.

    All sessions can be arranged online or in person in Ubud, Bali, depending on the type of session and availability.

  • Working together is a collaborative and thoughtful process. My role is to create a calm, respectful space where you can explore the patterns or challenges you are facing without judgement or pressure.

    Sessions are guided gently and at a pace that feels manageable for you. Rather than forcing insight or pushing for quick answers, the work allows underlying dynamics to reveal themselves naturally. Many people find that simply seeing these patterns more clearly can bring a sense of relief and understanding.

    My approach is grounded, practical, and compassionate. The aim is not to analyse endlessly, but to help the nervous system recognise and release patterns that no longer serve you, allowing greater clarity, stability, and freedom to emerge over time.

  • No. You do not need to hold any particular spiritual beliefs to take part in Family Constellations or Rapid Core Healing.

    The work focuses on exploring patterns within relationships, emotional responses, and family systems. Many people approach it from a psychological or therapeutic perspective, simply with curiosity about the influences that shape their experiences.

    Some participants interpret the process in spiritual terms, while others see it as a way of understanding relational dynamics and nervous system responses. Both perspectives are equally welcome. The work does not require any belief system, only a willingness to explore patterns with openness and reflection.
