Description
Sarah’s approach to Emergent Constellations encourages facilitators to integrate relational neuroscience and an understanding of relational vs instrumental language into the work. Participants learn the basics of constellation work within the framework of emergent constellations, and enter into a meaningful partnership with reps and clients to harvest all the wisdom that is present in the field.
For beginners and experienced practitioners alike, this 2-day, 10-hour class will give you the vocabulary and experience you need to enjoy other facilitation classes.
Where?
The course will meet via zoom. We welcome participants from all time zones who wish to learn asynchronously for some or all of the sessions. Recordings and visuals will be made available to those who are registered for the live program (typically available within 72 hours of the live session).
When?
The schedule will be as follows:
Friday, January 23, 2026: 9am-12pm, 1pm-3pm

All times are in the Pacific Time zone. (To convert to your time zone, please click here)
What To Expect
Each day we alternate between short lectures on neuroscience and constellation concepts with mini-constellations to explore and practice the concepts, and then we do large group constellations. If you’re a visual learner you can imagine small islands of didactic learning, surrounded by slightly larger islands of small-group learning, and then interspersed with large, full-group constellations. Small group work will be done in small groups or dyads via breakout groups on zoom.
What You'll Learn
This 3-day immersion will cover the following material:
- Interviewing the client: what to ask, what to look for
- Choosing the initial elements for representation
- Integrating the contributions of representatives
- What creates movement in a constellation
- Experiencing the field
- The narrative arc of the constellation
- When to resource
- Healing words and sentences
- Unconscious contracts
- Ways to move to completion

For experienced facilitators of emergent constellations, this class will be an opportunity to deepen their approach to this style of work.
For beginners, this class will give you the vocabulary and experience you need to enjoy other facilitation classes.
