Thinking Nurse: 'Blog Therapy' - An Evaluation of an Online Self-Help Phenomenon

This is an interesting article about the use of blogs as therapy.

It's well written by a student nurse, undertaking a learning disabilities course, and provides several interesting examples and a literature review of this emerging field, comparing the practice with private journal keeping which has been studied and advocated for some years.

A similar story was told by the Guardian in it's piece on Web Therapy on Feb 8th this year.
