About Facilitator

My name is Yuliya Ilchyk. I am a Ukraine born family constellation facilitator and somatics practitioner residing in Maryland, USA. In 2011 I first discovered systemic and family constellations as a client. Experiencing the healing effect and positive changes they brought into my life, and seeing similar results for others, inspired me to dive deeper. I decided to study family constellations therapy to become a facilitator. 

After graduating from the Hellinger Institute of DC, I became a certified facilitator and launched my own practice in 2016. I am always eager to enhance my education and experience to better help those seeking positive transformations. Also, I am a member of the International Systemic Constellations Association (ISCA) and Ukrainian Association of Systemic Constellations (УАСР), undergoing regular supervision for professional development and support. Please scroll down to see my credentials below.

Since 2016 I have been offering online holistic counseling sessions, individual family constellations, thematic webinars, as well as in-person family constellation workshops in the Washington DC area:  

• in-person family constellation workshops in Washington DC area  
• on-line individual family and systemic constellations  
• on-line individual healing counseling sessions for continuous support
• on-line short-term body focused method of work on stress and trauma (developed on the basis of Somatic Experiencing® approach by Peter Levine)

Sessions are held in English, Ukrainian, and Russian.
