Geography shapes families. Where people live, where they came from, and where they moved to all influence family dynamics, cultural identity, and generational patterns. GenogramAI's location features help practitioners visualize these geographic dimensions of family history.
Geographic information in genograms serves multiple purposes:
GenogramAI's Location View mode overlays geographic information onto your genogram. When activated, each person shows their location label and optional country flag.
When location data is added across multiple generations, patterns emerge:
For immigrant families, mapping the journey visually helps explore:
Physical distance profoundly affects relationships. Genograms can reveal:
Mapping three generations revealed a clear pattern: the grandparents immigrated from Mexico to Texas, their children scattered across the Southwest, and grandchildren were now in California, Colorado, and back to Texas. The one grandchild who returned to Texas—near the grandparents—was serving as the family caretaker, carrying significant stress despite being the youngest sibling.
This geographic visualization helped the family understand why caregiving responsibilities fell unevenly and opened conversations about redistribution.
GenogramAI includes flag indicators for 50+ countries, covering:
Location data transforms genograms from static family trees into dynamic maps of family journeys. By tracking where family members live and where they came from, practitioners gain insight into cultural adaptation, family dispersal, caregiving patterns, and the geographic dimensions of family life. GenogramAI's Location View makes this rich data visually accessible and clinically actionable.
