Genogram Tool

Genogram Tool is a free online genogram maker for family therapists, social workers, counselors, and trainees. It helps you lay out three generations, mark emotional relationship lines (close, distant, conflict, cut-off), and keep the notation aligned with what supervisors typically expect.

Build by starting with the index person, then adding partner, parents, and children. Connect people to set couple and emotional relationships, mark deceased when needed, and keep generations properly organized so the diagram stays readable as the family grows.

When you’re ready to share or submit, export a clean PDF or PNG (with additional export options like SVG). You can also generate a first draft by typing or dictating who’s in the family, then refine the fully editable diagram by hand.

Is Genogram Tool free to use?

You can build and export without installing anything, and it’s free to start. Pro is only mentioned when you need watermark-free PDFs for specific case file, portfolio, or assignment needs.

Do I need to install an app?

No—Genogram Tool runs in your browser and works on Mac, iPad, Chromebook, and phone.

What kind of genogram can I create?

It’s designed for three-generation genograms, including couples, children, and emotional relationship lines like close, distant, conflict, and cut-off.

How do I start building the diagram?

Add the index person first, then build outward using Add Partner, Add Parents, and Add Child. After that, select people and use Connect to set couple and emotional relationships.

What can I export?

You can export a clean PDF or PNG, and you also have export options like SVG.

Can it generate an AI draft for me?

Yes—type or dictate who’s in the family to create an initial AI draft, then refine it in the editor or continue building manually.
