Abstract
The authors review the function of boundaries within teaching and superviso ry relationships and identify patterns that create vulnerability to boundar y infringement. Boundary violations are conceptualized as a process that th at is more likely to develop when teachers and supervisors are isolated and under stress. Suggestions are made for a personal check up that focus on s elf-care, student care, and care of the professional group.
