And it's open access 😁
Thrilled to have a chapter in @lisabortolotti.bsky.social’s and all’s fab book on #EpistemicJustice. Mine explores how epistemic justice can help us understand how different diagnoses ‘do’ very different things in interaction, using BPD vs depression as examples. I argue we must reimagine diagnosis!
link.springer.com/book/10.1007... Our edited volume, Epistemic Injustice in Mental Healthcare, has now been published and is free to download. I made a very small contribution - excellently edited and led by @lisabortolotti.bsky.social and supported by Wellcome

If mentoring didn't work w. a Countylines-exploited/trafficked YP, & additional hours/sessions failed too,

✋STOP✋
proposing more of it.

Engaging CL victims is a rare specialism.
It's not in the gift of generic YW/mentors who (unwittingly or not) can & do harm YP/fams further.

Sad reality:

Perceived #goodguys😇 #saviours😇 are sticking the knife into #CountylinesCCE victims' & families' backs to prioritise themselves.
