that's good to know Dr. Muffin. Do you know what the arguments for it are? I can imagine in situations where it's a safety issue there could be an argument for it. Also if it's something in the news, the client might expect the therapist to read it. I remember an episode of In Treatment where the client is a prominent business man in some kind of trouble, and he's shocked or maybe offended that the therapist (Paul?) hasn't read about it in the news. But that seems different from looking for stuff the client wrote online. It seems good for therapists to learn from what clients write online too, but that's different from looking for their own real life clients. okay, this post is long enough!
