Questions # Common questions Understanding intergenerational trauma is a journey. Here are the questions people ask most often before they start mapping. ### Is traumaroots therapy? No. traumaroots is a tool to map and understand your history, designed to be used alongside professional care. We help you organise the what. A therapist helps you navigate the why. ### Does traumaroots diagnose anything? No. It maps what happened and what connects to what. It does not diagnose you or anyone else, and it does not predict what will happen to any individual. ### Do I need my whole family to join? No. You can start alone and invite people later, if and when you feel ready. Many people find value in mapping what they already know before they talk to elders or siblings. ### Who can see my tree? Only the people you explicitly invite. You control permissions and can revoke access at any time. ### What does it cost? Pricing is still being finalised. It will be published on the pricing page before anyone is asked to pay. ### When can I use it? traumaroots is in active development and the mapping tools are usable now. Launch news will appear on the coming soon page. There are no dates to publish yet. ### Is it only for families? No. Families, therapists and clinicians each get their own way in, with the same shared map underneath. Start with the family page if you are mapping your own history. ## Need support now? traumaroots is not a crisis service. If you need to talk to someone now, the Australian support lines are listed on the crisis resources page. [Crisis resources](https://traumaroots.com/crisis-resources) --- Canonical page:
