Where this comes from

Abstract

The head of the Personality Disorders Clinic at the University of Michigan recently told the annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association that he has used "e-mail counselling" to treat seriously ill patients. He provided some advice about the possible use of e-mail to supplement face-to-face sessions in the psychiatrist's office.
