> Yes,
I think chat rooms, bulletin boards, client support groups, are incredibly important. It helps so much to have someone else to run by whatever happens in that little room. And even beyond chat rooms and bulletin boards, clients need to get involved with professional boards, and with legislative bodies that regulate psychotherapy. Only when consumers make their needs and demands heard will there be real systemic change. But I can't imagine with the support that you offer one another here, that any of you could really go on in a really bad therapy for too long. I've really enjoyed my visit here, and I may well eavesdrop or pipe up from time to time.Wanted to add my thanks both for "In Session" and for chatting with us here. I guess I have a final question -- do you think chat rooms such as Babble will/are changing the balance of power in the therapy room? It seems that it is easier to find information or share experiences now than it was as little as 5 years ago.
