Where to Draw the Line: How to Set Healthy Boundaries Every Day, by Anne Katherine
With every encounter, we either demonstrate that we’ll protect what we value or that we’ll give ourselves away. Healthy boundaries preserve our integrity. Unlike defenses, which isolate us from our true selves and from those we love, boundaries filter out harm.This book provides the tools and insights needed to create boundaries so that we can allow time and energy for the things that matter—and helps break down limiting defenses that stunt personal growth.

Jan Black’s book applies to everyone who needs to learn about boundaries, including mental health professionals.
