Why Therapists Need Dedicated Genogram Software
Generic diagramming tools like Canva, Lucidchart, or draw.io can draw boxes and lines — but they don't understand clinical genogram notation. They can't track 42 health conditions across generations, add session annotations, or share encrypted assessments with clients.
WebGeno is purpose-built for mental health professionals. Every feature — from the quadrant-based health conditions system to the encrypted client sharing — was designed for how therapists actually work with families.
- Standard notation follows McGoldrick, Gerson & Petry conventions
- Clinical health tracking 47 conditions with visual patterns
- Session annotations attach notes to any person or relationship
- Privacy-first end-to-end encryption, zero-knowledge cloud
- Client collaboration encrypted sharing and feedback
