I began hearing about the Family Constellation approach to therapy from co-workers, and wanted to get a basic idea of what it entailed when I signed up for one of the workshops. I initially thought it would be a basic training introduction and was surprised when I realized I would be an active participant along with the other members of the group.
Although I consider myself a new age person and someone who is open to non traditional aspects of therapy I was a bit skeptical when I walked in and there was a strong scent of incense and a circle prepared with chairs, all with a box of tissue neatly arranged next to each chair. I had planned on taking lots of notes and listening to theory, not crying. The experience left me speechless and amazed at how powerful and honest our senses really are. The facilitators really created a safe place and were patient in allowing each participant to work at the level they felt comfortable. I left the workshop physically drained but restored with a sense of great insight into my personal relationships. I would strongly recommend these workshops and plan on attending more myself. ~ I.B.
I have both witnessed and participated in Michaelene's constellation work, which I find very powerful and deeply spiritual. I recently suggested that one of my own clients visit Michaelene for a constellation session. The client reported very positive changes after her work with Michaelene. There was a deep and grounding shift toward inner peace, which was present for her even during stressful family gatherings around the holidays. ~ Metro Detroit psychotherapist
“You know, it’s easy to think that sort of the foundation of what’s true in healing is purely psychological, and it isn’t … it just goes deeper than what we think of the psychological healing. It’s really soul healing, the way that I experience it. It’s developing more and more and more integrity, become more and more integrated. It’s [FC] just given me that much more compassion for why people are the way they are and why they do what they do. And I feel less blaming or less, just less judgmental.” ~ Amy

During this challenging time, Michaelene is offering a way to connect to our Higher Selves and our Ancestors through color and imagination that is healing, creative, and transforming. After a few years, she is bringing back her Windows of Connection Mandala Classes. Currently, they are ONLINE ONLY. Please select the Class Details tab for more information.
Learn to create Windows of Connection Mandalas for your own expression of feelings and stress reduction, explore your identity and connect with your Higher Self, as well as connect with your Ancestors and their Gifts for you. These offerings are a sacred and transformative process as well as a connective one through art and meditation that can be used in meditation and honoring yourself and others. You can come to find peace, understanding, love, and transformation through your creations. It is my honor to offer this modality as a way to begin to connect, explore, and transform by learning something new and connecting with others. 2020 Dates May 23: Exploring Self-Expression July 18: Connecting with Your Inner Guide |

"I recently took part in a Mandala making workshop: Windows of Connection, given by Michaelene. It was an online group, and I wasn’t sure how it would work - making art at home while connecting with others on my laptop. It was all new to me - I didn’t know very much about Mandalas either, but I can tell you - it was wonderful! You can be in your own space, with your own art materials, but connected with like-minded souls who may be miles away from you. The experience was fun and creative but also led me quite quickly into a tender, and somewhat surprising, inner space.
To begin with, Michaelene led us on a guided meditation which was really lovely. She has a wonderful voice and presence which created a beautiful, safe space for the imagery to unfold. Making the mandalas felt like an extension of the meditation because the memories, ideas and connections continued to unfold as I was creating the mandala.
I will continue to explore the imagery which surfaced during Michaelene’s class, and I expect to be making more mandalas in the months and years to come. I highly recommend this workshop. "
