You might wonder what a book about introducing electronic monitoring systems in the trucking sector tells us about the future of therapy. #UberTherapy is a business model that has nothing to do with therapy. Another fantastic book by journalist @KarenLevy about platformization.

What's the cost of the convenience of UberTherapy? Listen to a discussion between grown ups about the future of digital therapy.

I'm on a roll with books that provoke book-envy. This book by #RobertChapman I didn't read until after the final copyedit of UberTherapy. Probably a mercy because its a mind expanding read about #neurodiversity.

It should come with a health warning for authors that you will experience that most awful disease of book-envy. But if your ego can stand the brilliance of #ChinaMills @deathsbywelfare you will learn important things.

One of the most gracious minded thinkers in #psychotherapy is #RosieRizq who writes about #NHStalkingtherapies as a critical insider. For therapists to say what is on their mind about their work is surprisingly difficult. She made it possible for the rest of us.

This book by the journalist @danamattioli.bsky.social about the e-commerce tsunami of Amazon arrived late in the drafting of #UberTherapy offering a roadmap for what happens when therapy becomes a sector of e-commerce and retail therapy.

I'm starting a series of posts about some of the important books behind mine, UberTherapy published this week by @bristoluniversitypress. This book by US psychotherapists & researchers - including Linda Michaels from @psianofficial - pretty much lays the roadmap for the future of therapy in the UK.

Are you ready for some UberTherapy?

Other people are not a waste of time part 2: Whatever happened to the Cotswolds? How my town became the wealth management centre of the UK and home to Beyonce. This week's blog www.survivingwork.org/surviving-wo...

Rather than offering a template for bunker building, my new book UberTherapy: The New Business of Mental Health argues for the necessity of relating to others as a response to the platformization of care.
