Family Ecomap

A family ecomap is a visual representation of the social environment of a family. It is frequently used in family counseling, mental health treatment, or medical intervention to help the family understand their relationship with their social environment, their support level, and what social aspects may need improvement. A clinician or medical professional can use a family ecomap to understand their client better and provide insights into their social environment. Individuals and families can create ecomaps to visualize their family in a social context.
