ABOUT

Hi, I am Ursula

I’ve worked with Family and Business Constellations for more than 20 years — first for my own personal development and growth, and now as a certified facilitator. These tools have shaped how I see systems, patterns, and possibilities — both in families and in organisations.

My career started in the corporate world which taught me a lot about structure, process and politics. After fifteen years of executive roles in the go-to-market space, it was time leave. I acquired post grad counselling qualifications and took the plunge into Entrepreneurship as co-founder of a boutique marketing agency to support small/medium sized companies.

During a visit to Germany, I discovered  “Aufstellungen” after Bert Hellinger, which are known as Systemic Family and Business Constellations. The rest is history. I completed my first training twenty years ago and I applied the principles ever since in my work and personal development. 

Over the last 10 years I worked as a Go-To-Market business consultant and loved collaboration with purpose driven founders and CEOs of start/scaleups.

The Journey

Over time, I had the opportunity to gain insights from more than 115 organisations. I started to see repeating patterns and dynamics that defied the textbooks.

I began to see organisations as living complex systems of people, functions, processes and many other elements, all with their unique history.

More and more I introduced constellation work and quietly integrated constellation principles. They helped me cut through complexity and focus on what really mattered. I’ve seen how personal patterns shape the way we work, lead, grow, and engage in business.

A Turning Point

After years of driving hard in business, I hit a wall: burnout. It brought everything to a halt — and gave me the chance to listen more deeply to myself and the systems I was part of. That experience confirmed what constellation work had already shown me: lasting change begins with seeing what’s been ignored. That clarity is what now guides my practice.

Shaped by a Cross-Cultural Life

I was born in Germany as the youngest child of a post war refugee family from Poland,  and grew up navigating questions of loss identity, belonging, and resilience and  intergenerational trauma. Later, I moved to Australia as an expat — and stayed. These personal experiences give me deep empathy for those working across cultures or carrying invisible burdens.

"I was first introduced to Family and Business Constellation therapy by Ursula over 15 years ago and was quite blown away by the power and profundity of what came through in the session. I did it with various other practitioners over the subsequent years, but when Ursula started doing regular group sessions two years ago, I was all in.  I have benefitted from both the insights into my business and how to move forward in certain directions, as well as resolving issues on a more personal family-based level. Whether you're having a Constellation done for you or you're acting as a representative in someone else's, there is so much value to be gained. Ursula helps facilitate and navigate the delicate space with such intelligence, wisdom and compassion. If you're already very familiar with Constellation therapy or are curious to try it out for the first time, then I can't recommend Ursula highly enough."

Working with Ursula has really helped me. As someone from a third-generation family business, it’s always been tricky to deal with both family dynamics and business decisions at the same time. Ursula has a real gift for spotting where things get stuck and helping clear them up. Thanks to her constellations work and her advice, I’ve been able to sort out some tough issues and make clearer, more balanced decisions. She creates a space where you feel safe and not judged, which makes it easier for things to heal — not just for me but for the whole family and business system. Her support has made my family and business life run much more smoothly. I’d definitely recommend Ursula to anyone trying to make sense of complicated family-business challenges.
