Genogram

A genogram is a graphic representation of a family tree that goes beyond the names, dates and life events of a traditional family tree and as such, can be used in fields such as medicine and psychology to help identify family traits. Data such as education, occupation, chronic illness and social relationships when plotted on a family tree can help trained professionals identify patterns that might influence a person’s state of mind.
