This course will explore the power of genograms as a clinical tool for psychologists, counselors, and social workers. Genograms go beyond traditional family trees by visually mapping patterns of relationships, emotional dynamics, and intergenerational influences on mental health. This course will provide an in-depth understanding of how to construct, analyze, and apply genograms in clinical practice to uncover family-based trauma, communication patterns, and systemic factors that impact client well-being. Participants will learn how to use genograms to facilitate client insight, family therapy interventions, and culturally sensitive assessments. Through case studies, interactive exercises, and discussion, attendees will leave with practical strategies to integrate genograms into their therapeutic work for a deeper understanding of family systems and client concerns.

Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

Construct a genogram, including key symbols, relationship indicators, and generational patterns.
Develop skills to interpret genograms to identify intergenerational trauma, relational dynamics, and systemic influences on mental health.
Identify how genograms can be used in treatment to enhance assessment, guide interventions, and support treatment planning.
