ZOMPERO SANTOS, Michelle Joanny    GOMES, Isabel Cristina. The use of the genogram as an expressive resource and object mediator in group of children and adolescents. []. , 39, 2, pp.197-212. ISSN 1679-0383.

The practice of the family genogram demonstrates a significant source of research on family dynamics, in addition to the manifest, especially when used as a mediator object within the space of a therapeutic session. It helps in the description of family relationships, structures with link, roles and roles occupied by the members of a family or group and facilitates access to the figuration of inter and transgenerational psychic transmission. With the purpose to understand how the genogram has been used in a group of children and adolescents, including siblings, a narrative review of the literature was carried out in the main databases with the key words: genogram, group and children. The results demonstrated that the genogram has been presented as a flexible, creative instrument, which adapts to various theoretical references and contexts to be used.
