Boundaries
I met a fellow therapist through a forum on a directory that my practice is listed on. She wrote a very interesting blog post today about our electronic connections.
Part of what Nancy Quay says is that the instant connection, whether IM or email, or whatever, makes it more difficult for us to keep clear boundaries with each other.
Boundaries, in case you wonder, are the spaces between people - emotional or physical space - that says, "this is me/mine" and "that is you or yours"
Take a look and see if her comments stir anything in you.
