To the Heart of the Matter
Brief Therapies
Bert Hellinger
To the Heart of the MatterThis book documents for the first time some of Bert Hellinger's briefest brief therapies. The right word, the sudden crystal clear picture, the culmination of a lifelong search -- sometimes the truth just demands to be heard. The therapies also draw from the Family Constellation approach but they work with the bare bones, usually just two or three representatives. Sometimes, Hellinger does not intercede on any level, he merely steps back and allows the resolution to emerge. This book presents 63 different "encounters," 63 opportunities to get to the heart of the matter.
