Four-Generation Genogram Examples
A four-generation genogram maps family relationships, structures, and health patterns across four generations—grandparents, parents, you, and your descendants. It’s a powerful visual tool for therapists, social workers, and family researchers to uncover inherited traits, emotional bonds, and recurring life events.
Describe it in plain English — the AI drafts it, you edit. No template wrangling.
