New in coachingspace: 52 Animal Figures for Systemic Coaching, Consulting and Therapy

Dear readers,

Animal metaphors are among the most powerful methods in systemic coaching, systemic consulting and systemic therapy. They help make relationships, inner parts, teams, conflicts and resources visible, and they externalize complex situations in an intuitive way.

That is why coachingspace is expanding its digital figure case by 52 animal figures, available in all 3D methods starting next week.

Why animal metaphors work so well in coaching

Animals speak directly to our imagination. Where abstract descriptions often come slowly, animal metaphors quickly create vivid images and new perspectives.

One simple question is enough:

"If your relationship were an animal, which one would it be?"

Within a few seconds, a first inner image usually appears. Then the actual systemic reflection begins:

  • What characterizes this animal?

  • What strengths does it have?

  • How big does it seem?

  • Where is it located in the room?

  • How does the image change over the course of the coaching?

  • What would have to happen for this animal to change?

What matters is not the supposedly correct meaning of the animal, but the personal meaning your clients give to it.

Using animal figures online, with coachingspace

The new animal figures can be used in all of coachingspace's virtual 3D rooms, for example in:

  • Systemic constellations

  • Couples counseling

  • Family counseling

  • Team coaching

  • Organizational development

  • Inner Team work

  • Conflict consulting

  • Resource work

  • Personal development

  • Forming hypotheses

Even complex dynamics become easy to visualize and work on together in the virtual room.

Digital possibilities that physical animal figures cannot offer

The virtual coaching room opens up additional methodical options:

  • 52 freely usable animal figures

  • Resize animals as you like

  • Position them anywhere in the room

  • Take the perspective of an animal

  • Combine them with every figure and method in coachingspace

  • Work together in real time, even online

The change of perspective in particular often brings surprising insights. Anyone who has looked at the world through the eyes of the "elephant in the room" or a "lion" tends to discover entirely new approaches to a solution.

From everyday practice

Many coaches already work successfully with animal metaphors, with adults as well as with children, families and people with cognitive impairments.

One important principle applies:

The person is not the animal. The animal describes the relationship, the situation or the dynamic.

This creates a safe space for reflection, free of premature labels.
