UberTherapy and the Enshittification of our Relational Lives: Part 1 of our Interview with Elizabeth Cotton With UberTherapy, Elizabeth Cotton follows the gig-economy playbook into psychotherapy, where platforms lower costs by depressing wages and standardizing treatment.

Therapeutic Tinder is a provocation about what it means to be a sector of e-commerce shaming the client who isn’t able to get what they want. It individualizes an industrial problem.

#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.

#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.

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...
