The task

When this tool helps

You need a clear narrative family map to discuss with a client.

Why use a dedicated tool?

The dedicated form gives you named inputs for this task. Pro makes therapeutic orientation available in the current tool, so you can adjust those settings without composing a new instruction each time.

Pro access covers the settings marked Pro. Check the offer, usage limits, and renewal terms shown in your app before paying.

From input to draft

A concrete example

Fictional material

Sample input

What you bring

Fictional adult A lives with partner B. A has a close relationship with sibling C and limited contact with parent D. No further family history is supplied. Create a text map and questions to clarify relationships.

Illustrative draft

A — partner B: living together. A — sibling C: described as close. A — parent D: limited contact. Clarify significant events, how A describes each relationship, and which connections matter to the current work.

Written to illustrate the task; this is not a captured Psy output. It is a draft for professional review.
