TURN CONFLICT INTO PEACE
Conflict accompaniment
for individuals, partners, groups and groupings
.
Conflict confronts us with things that we did not want to look at before,
and thus gives us the chance to turn to them now and resolve them.
To be able to do this, we need space and compassion and a sincere willingness,
to step out of the seductive structures of anger, judgment and revenge
and align ourselves towards responsibility, peace and connection.
Every conflict contains the possibility of opening up a new level.
If we cling to it, this usually means a hardening of boundaries and even permanent war.
If we open up to it and turn towards it, it opens up space for a completely new level of togetherness.
We can deal with the conflict clearly, responsibly and creatively and reshape the relationship.
The result is greater depth, accountability, trust and reliability for everyone involved.
This can mean going deeper into the connection
as well as going separate ways – in both cases both end up in a new state:
At peace.
I accompany people in conflict situations
in various constellations:
Between two people,
within a partnership,
a family,
in a team,
in a group
or between groups,
and of course also within one person.
I offer space and attentive support with the focus
that everyone is fully heard in their side, their concerns and possibilities
and that this leads to understanding, renegotiation and peace.

Peace begins where we open ourselves,
to truly listen to each other.

The common path from conflict to peace:
In this work, I always adapt to the individual concerns and the people involved,
and provide a secure framework and clear structure.
The process can generally be divided into 3 phases.
These naturally vary depending on the project.
A first impression can be gained in a non-binding orientation meeting.
In the first phase, we then create the basis and agreements for the collaboration together.
Phase #1
Readiness & Ground
The first step is to acknowledge the conflict and be willing to get help.
In order for me to accompany you, I need the consent of all parties involved.
Whether this is present, or what it would take to be so, is clarified either during the orientation meeting,
or, if unclear, in conversations that I have with the individual participants.
By clarifying whether you are really ready and willing, we create the ground to work together.
Depending on the requirements of the process, I have colleagues at my side who can accompany the work if necessary.
If you want to go further, the conclusion of this phase is the agreement on the type and scope of the support.
The sessions in this phase are charged by the hour.
The inquirer bears the responsibility towards me.
Phase #2
Listening & Being heard
Everyone involved is given the space to express themselves and be heard in depth.
This happens usually in one-to-one conversations with me or, if you wish, together.
It is often easier to open the door to a neutral person first than to be confronted directly with the other.
Here is also space for any emotions that arise and I support you in finding a constructive way of dealing with them.
When everyone is ready, the participants come together to show and hear each other in their truth.
I facilitate this process with a focus on creating an emotionally safe and fair space for everyone.
This is the core of the work, in which, ideally, listening to each other creates understanding, compassion and space to meet anew.
The process can end here, but can also continue into phase #3.
Die Verantwortung für diese Phase wird von allen Beteiligten gemeinsam getragen.
Die finanzielle Ebene kann auch von einem Träger übernommen sein.
Phase #3
Renegotiation & Peace
Now that everything is on the table and a new floor has been created, the relationship and needs can be renegotiated.
I hold the space for possibilities to emerge from seemingly contradictory wishes that include all needs.
This is where the energy that was previously felt as anger and being right expresses itself in creativity – and true miracles can happen!
This is the icing on the cake of the work, because true peace can really emerge where it was previously not thought possible.
Even if it should come to light here that you are going separate ways – it happens in peace.
Or the door opens to a deeper and more reliable level of the relationship, which stands much more securely on the experience of a shared crisis than ever before.
This phase is either already included in the contract or will be renegotiated after phase 2.

If not everyone involved wants to get support:
As it often happens that not all parties involved are willing to engage in accompaniment,
there is also the option of accompanying the conflict only on one side.
Here the same orientation applies:
Being heard
Experience understanding and compassion
Learning to deal with emotions
Renegotiating & making decisions
Landing in peace
The only difference here is that this does not happen in a shared context, but within the individual person or party.
In my experience, this is an enormously powerful movement.
Not only does it bring inner peace to one side (also with the conflict),
it can also indirectly shift relationships and entire fields through the movement of one person.
So don’t hesitate to make use of my support just because your counterpart is blocking it.
You are always free to take your power and responsibility into your hands.

Peace or conflict
is ultimately a decision
deep inside every human being.
If you make the decision for peace inside of you,
and follow it consistently,
then step by step
your thoughts, feelings and actions
will lead to peace in you and your environment.

If you have any further questions,
or to clarify whether working with me is an option for you –
I offer a free orientation talk.
Here we can get to know each other, clarify questions and see
whether we fit together.
