A genogram outperforms a traditional family tree because it is a detailed schematic design that displays the relationships, hereditary, and behavioral patterns that members of a family share, as well as how these patterns affect family members' lives.
A genogram is a graphic representation of a family tree that shows extensive information about individual relationships. Because there are no restrictions on the sort of data that can be included, genograms can be rather diverse. It goes beyond a standard family tree in that it allows the user to examine hereditary patterns as well as psychological aspects that influence relationships.
