I’m just going to say it, I’m not remotely humbled. Just as I was about to put a match to my Linkedin profile a US therapist describes my book #UberThearpy as ‘exquisitely dangerous’ and I have the entirely unique experience of being seen on @linkedin.com www.uber-therapy.org

The architecture of the therapy industry is founded on a system of professional cannibalism where bad therapy is blamed on bad therapists an aristocratic logic distracting us from the reality that we are set up for failure as we eat our own. www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo...

#DavidArmstrong’s book Organization in the Mind is somethink like poetry in its deep and creative curiosity into organisations. In the world of organisational consultancy he’s pretty much the Godfather of the deep work of group relations. www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo...

#MichaelRustin’s open minded and serious book Researching the Unconscious is about as close to a how-to book in researching the unconscious. He’s a meticulous thinker, pedant even, about getting psychoanalytically informed research just right. www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo...

Methods of Research into the Unconscious edited by Kalina Stamenova and the gentle Robert Hinshelwood is another important guide on how to access the unconscious in research. It will expand your mind about what is possible in researching actual people. www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo...

One of the threads of the story of UberTherapy is that the new business model of mental health acts as a defence against thinking. That it invites us to stop thinking about the systems within which we are working. This week's blog Defences against Thinking www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo...

Not everyone is designed to stare into the abyss but the something-is-better-than-nothing argument supporting ChatGPT Therapy is that it plays upon our ambivalence of having relationships with other people. www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo... @Adalovelaceinst @oiioxford @digitalgoodnet

The title did make me gasp & pretty much kept going throughout this remarkable edited book. How psychoanalysis can help you think about things you want to back away from. Brave stuff from profoundly experienced practitioners @TaviAndPort #DavidMorgan and #StanleyRuszczynski

Just the number of post it notes alone should indicate how useful this book was in forming my ideas about the uberization of therapy. Denigration of care in the UK, how very dare you from the thoughtful greats #JulianLousada and #AndrewCooper www.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/ubertherapy

survivingwork.bsky.social @survivingwork.bsky.social · 02/12/2025

We stand at the tipping point in the ‘race to the bottom’ that UberTherapy represents. And it can only be by protecting our ability to really say what’s on our minds that we can work through whether something is actually better than nothing. www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo...

In UberTherapy I use #RobertMoneyKyrle's 'facts of life' to measure what are the real consequences of uberization that denies the fundamental insecurity of needing others, who do not mirror us, in relationships that will at some point end. www.survivingwork.org/delinquents
