The purpose of drawing a genogram is to map out the complex interpersonal relationships present in the family and their biopsychosocial environment. It is a standard tool to assess the composition and structure of a person’s family background, roles, patterns of communication, social interactions, and relationships with the environment. This tool helps mental health professionals recognize visual representations of individuals, families, and hereditary disorders through specific coding or symbols in snapshot observations. Health therapists, clinicians, and others in various fields use genograms to track family history and identify recurring patterns of illness and behavior that affect relationships. This tool helps therapists quickly identify visual representations of the individual, family, and disorders within the family through specific coding or symbols. These symbols include graphical shapes such as circles, rectangles, dotted lines, straight lines, and vertical lines.
