Genogram (Social Work Practice)

A Social Work Practice Genogram is a visual tool that maps out an individual's family structure and relationships to analyze dynamics and patterns over generations. It goes beyond a simple family tree by including emotional connections, behavioral trends, and social factors like substance abuse, mental health issues, or caregiving roles. Social workers use genograms to gain deeper insights into a client’s family context, helping identify support systems and potential areas of concern. This tool aids in understanding how family history influences the client’s current circumstances, fostering more targeted and effective interventions. Customizable and easy to interpret, genograms are invaluable in enhancing communication and collaboration between clients and practitioners.
