Genogram templates

Yes. All 24 templates on this page (blank PDF, editable PowerPoint, SVG, a filled-in example PDF and a high-resolution PNG for each) are free to download with no signup, and all 184 online genogram templates are free to open, customize, and export as PNG. You can use any template as a starting point in GenogramAI without a paid subscription. PDF and SVG export are available on paid plans.

A blank genogram template is a completely empty diagram, with no pre-filled names or relationships, that gives you full flexibility to map any family structure. Clinicians use blank templates when the family is large or non-standard, when they want to complete the genogram by hand with a client during a session, or when starting a new intake assessment. A blank template typically includes the correct symbol key (squares, circles, relationship lines) so the clinician can draw without needing to memorize notation.

Yes. Every one of the 24 templates on this page has a free printable PDF: blank 3- and 4-generation, nuclear, blended, divorce and remarriage, adoption and foster care, same-sex parents, single parent, multigenerational household, twins, immigration, family therapy, couples, mental health, substance use, grief, medical, nursing, social work, child welfare, school counseling, student assignment, and genogram with eco-map. All are US Letter size in standard genogram notation, and each also has a two-page PDF with a filled-in example. You can also open any of the 184 online templates, edit it, and export it as PNG for free or as a vector PDF on a paid plan.

Yes. Each downloadable template on this page comes in an editable PowerPoint (.pptx) version: every square, circle, and relationship line is a real shape you can move, copy, and connect. The .pptx files also open in Google Slides and Keynote. For Word, open the .pptx, select the shapes, and paste them into your Word document, where they stay editable; for Google Docs, paste them into a drawing (Insert > Drawing). For clinical work, the online templates go further: the full symbol set, emotional relationship overlays, and medical markers are applied automatically instead of drawn by hand.

It depends on your use case. For therapy and social work, a 3-generation template in standard genogram notation is the clinical norm. For medical use, choose a template with health-condition markers per person. For a social work assessment, use the template with the case header and household-boundary notation. Every template on this page is free.

For a printable template, download the PDF and fill it in by hand, or open the PowerPoint version and edit the shapes. For an online template, click "Use template" on any card below. It opens in GenogramAI with the full genogram already built. From there you can edit names, add or remove family members, change relationship lines, add medical conditions, and export the finished genogram.

Yes. Every PDF template on this page is print-ready at US Letter size. For an online template, export it as a PNG (free) or as a PDF or SVG (paid plans) and print it at any size. PDF and SVG keep vector quality for sharp large prints.

Yes. Every template uses standard genogram notation as described by McGoldrick, Gerson, and Petry: squares for males, circles for females, structural relationship lines, emotional relationship overlays, and medical condition markers in the four-quadrant system.

Yes. The family therapy and social work printables, and the clinical and medical online templates, are designed for clinical use. They include emotional relationship overlays, medical condition tracking, and multigenerational patterns that therapists and social workers need for assessments and case documentation.

At minimum: three generations (grandparents, parents, and the index person with siblings), squares and circles for each person, marriage and child lines, a double outline for the index person, and a symbol key covering deceased, divorce, separation, and cohabitation. Clinical templates add emotional relationship lines and medical quadrants.
