ABOUT
Hi, I am Ursula
For more than two decades, systemic constellations have been central to my work — first as a personal exploration, and later as a professional practice spanning family, relational, organisational and creative contexts.
I work with Family Constellations, Business Constellations, and creative applications of this approach — all of which explore the deeper patterns and unseen dynamics that shape how we relate, decide, create and move through life.
Alongside this, I bring more than 35 years of experience in technology, leadership and go-to-market strategy across corporate, startup and consulting environments.
Over time, these worlds have come together into a single perspective: one that bridges lived human experience with the structures, systems and decisions that shape our outer lives.
At the heart of my work is a simple focus — helping make visible what is often felt but not yet fully seen, so that greater clarity, connection and movement becomes possible.
A personal path into systemic work
My first encounter with systemic constellations was over twenty years ago in Germany, and it immediately resonated on a deeply personal level. It offered a way of understanding human experience that went beyond explanation — something that could be sensed, felt and recognised beneath the surface of everyday life.
Since then, constellation work has been a central thread in my own personal journey. It has supported me through significant life transitions, shaped how I relate to others, and changed how I see patterns in relationships, family systems and decision-making. It continues to be a practice that brings greater clarity, grounding and perspective in both personal and professional contexts.
Over time, I trained formally in Family and Business Constellations and began integrating this work alongside my experience in leadership, consulting and organisational strategy. What emerged was not a separation between “personal” and “professional” worlds, but a recognition that the same systemic dynamics are present across both.
Today, I also explore health and creative applications of constellation work — where perception, embodiment and intuitive awareness open new ways.
Systemic constellations have been central to my personal and professional growth for the last two decades. It shaped how I relate to others, make decisions, navigate through challenges and change with more ease and purpose.
The Journey
Over my time in the business world, I’ve had the opportunity to work with more than 115 organisations across different industries and stages of growth.
Across this work, I began to notice repeating patterns and dynamics that often sat outside conventional business explanations.
The same issues would appear in different forms:
in communication, in decision-making, in leadership, and in how change either moved or stalled.
This gradually shifted how I saw organisations. Not as strategy, structures, process and plans.
But as living systems made up of people, roles, histories, expectations, and relationships — all interacting at once.
More and more, I began to integrate principles from Systemic Constellations into my work.
It helped me getting a deeper sense of the real issue and where change could make the desired impact.
I also began to recognise something important: The patterns we carry personally often show up in the way we work, lead, and relate in professional environments.
A Turning Point
After many years of operating in high-intensity business environments, I reached a point of burnout.
It brought everything to a stop. And in that pause, something became clearer than before. That lasting change does not begin with doing more. It begins with seeing things differently and being prepared to take a hard, yet gentle look. Seeing and accepting what has been unconscious, overlooked, or avoided can allow shifts that I thought were not possible.
Shaped by a Cross-Cultural Life
I was born in Germany as the youngest child in a post-war refugee family from Poland.
Like many in that context, themes of loss, resilience, identity, and belonging were part of the environment I grew up in — even when they were not spoken about directly. Later, I moved to Australia as an expat and made it my home.
Living across cultures has deepened my sensitivity to what sits beneath surface identity — especially in situations where people are navigating change, complexity, or invisible relational weight.
What connects all of this
Across organisational work, systemic practice, and personal experience, one thread continues to repeat:
What shapes us is often not what is immediately visible. When that becomes aware, is acknowledged and accepted, something in the system tends to shift.
Learning never ends. I share here a personal story about one of my life long quests. An unexpected experience with fear horses and systemic constellations.
