Based on the knowledge derived from family constellations, a therapeutic method developed by Bert Hellinger, Janus investigates other psychotherapeutic approaches and introduces a new perspective on human behavior. Janus addresses debated issues like nature versus nurture, the role of unconscious factors in shaping behavior, and the structure of the conscience, arguing that family constellations offer new understandings for the fields of psychotherapy, psychology, anthropology, and religious studies.

In Systemic Constellations: Theory, Practice, and Applications, Damian Janus examines systemic constellations, a breakthrough method of psychotherapy, coaching, and consulting developed by Bert Hellinger. Janus examines numerous case studies and addresses the potential of Hellinger's approach for improving clients' mental health.

In this book, Damian Janus examines the connections between psychopathological phenomena and religion. Janus contends that there are certain factors-fear of death, desire for power and longevity, and need for predictability of life and longing for care-which reside within the framework of religion and mental disorders. These factors shape the psychopathological image and contribute to the genesis of religiosity. He explores this contention in his analysis of various mental disorders (neuroses, personality disorders, dissociative disorders, psychoses, eating disorders) and symptoms (delusions, hallucinations, self-destructive behaviors), as well as more common psychological phenomena. This book is recommended for scholars of psychology, religion, and philosophy as well as psychotherapists.
