Abstract
Online peer supervision and case study groups are an effective method for clinicians to share experiences and support each other in their work. This article describes some theoretical and practical ideas about how to set up and manage such a group using an e-mail list. It offers some suggests for helping members acclimate to the group, present their cases, and pace their responses to the case discussions. The unique group dynamics of online text communication are explored, as well as the important ethical issues that must be considered in these types of online groups. The article concludes by pointing out the importance of moving beyond text-talk in order to maximize the group's success.
