How to Make a Genogram

Your family at a glance — so you can understand what shaped you, break generational chains, and create a new legacy of freedom & wholeness.

What is a Genogram?

A genogram is like a family tree — but deeper and more emotionally revelational.

It goes beyond who’s who and explores:

  • relationship dynamics

  • roles in the family

  • emotional & relationship patterns

  • the legacy of trauma, medical, & mental health history across generations.

It helps you see the invisible: patterns of connection, conflict, enmeshment, grief, silence, & strength — and how all of it shaped you to be who & how you are today.

Why Make a Genogram?

Like a fish in water, you don’t realize how much your early environment shaped you…until you step outside of it and see it from a new vantage point.

A genogram lets you see the patterns that have been quietly shaping your emotional world — and gives you the power to change them for the better.

Here’s what this tool can help you do:

  • Understand the “why” behind your biggest triggers and emotional patterns

  • Raise compassion & clarity for yourself, your parents, and even their parents

  • Make sense of repeating issues in your relationships — so you can finally shift them

  • Recognize generational burdens you’ve been carrying without realizing it

  • Visualize where boundaries are missing (or too rigid!), and start repairing them

  • A Canva or Google Slides template so you can build your own genogram (& with step-by-step video tutorials) — no tech skills required!

Here’s what other BIG Feelers say:

  • Joanne has supported me in identifying my own self sabotaging patterns, mindsets, and helping me to break through my limited beliefs and step into my personal power. Her real life experience of working through difficult emotions helps me to champion myself as I give my gifts to the world.

    Rukmini Poddar
    Artist & Author of “Draw Your Feelings”

  • All my life, I have put others before me and I am burning out piece by piece. I often question whether the decisions I make are for me. I want to be more in control of my life instead of living reactively…proud of my emotions and feelings instead of ashamed…more confident in my relationships and career.

  • Joanne serves as my "emotions translator." She gets me to reflect inward. Often, she is able to help me understand not only HOW I'm feeling, but WHY.
