The biological family is included in the traditional genogram; however, genograms may also include individuals based on the function they fulfill within the family. The genogram, which is similar to a family tree, illustrates all of the significant links within the family. The genogram is a method for systematically determining who is in the family, avoiding the typical problem of some families not disclosing vital but contested or unpleasant relationships to therapists.
