How to Use Creately’s Family Genogram Maker

1. Open a Family Genogram Template

Launch Creately and instantly get started with a professionally designed family genogram template. These templates are tailored for mental health assessments, medical history mapping, and family therapy contexts. Templates save time and give you a solid structure to build on. Creately’s family genogram maker also lets you open a blank canvas and start from scratch.

2. Add Symbols and Relationships

3. Customize with Notes and Details

Enrich your genogram by adding labels, annotations, or clinical notes. Use sticky notes to capture observations, session notes, or insights. Apply color codes and grouping features to highlight emotional or behavioral patterns while keeping the diagram organized.

Click the “Share” button to invite colleagues, supervisors, or other professionals. Work together on the same genogram with synced previews, in-app comments, and real-time edits to refine details and discuss cases.
