Miracle, Solution and System

Solution-focused systemic structural constellations for therapy and organisational change. Constellation work is a highly effective way of externalising and working with problems in family and organisational life. Solution focused practice is the art of building solutions as simply as possible. The author combines the two and sets out a radical yet gentle form of practice. The pioneering work of the author and her partner Matthias Varga von Kibed is highly influential in Europe and appears here in English for the first time.

Review :
"At last we have an English-language version of Insa Sparrer's extraordinarily exciting and innovative book on Structural Constellations and Solutions Focused Therapy. Insa's inspired integration of these two approaches to working with existential and practical human dilemmas offers those of both disciplines much to ponder and incorporate into our work, as well as offering those who are unfamiliar with either a useful and inspiring introduction to a new form of working with people. I thoroughly recommend this book as a valuable contribution to the field." - Vivian Broughton, Constellations Work Trainings UK
