But I think there's a difference between boundaries and the therapy frame though they interrelate. Boundaries usually concern isolated actions. But the frame can be affected by how boundaries are handled by both client and T. The establishment of and engaging with boundaries that don't support the therapeutic relationship and goals damage the frame, and so can undermine both the therapy and the relationship. Boundaries can come and go, but the frame needs to remain consistent.

This sounds just right to me -but what's complicated in this context is how would you define 'frame?' How do the frame and boundaries interrelate?
