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.

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.

The therapy unicorn that is being offered here has a compelling business case. No more waiting lists, no more diagnosis or complex co-morbidity just consumers consuming therapy on an app.

One of the most gracious minded thinkers that 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.

In AI mythology the Titans and Cassandras of tech are slugging it out in the ‘broligarchy’ heroically winning the battle for mental health on the basis that in this era of platform capitalism, size always matters

In the writing of UberTherapy I attempted to decolonize my theoretical framing by buying & then actually reading the next generation of critical mental health writing. This book gave me hope that the next generation of thinkers are coming. Do yourself a favour buy it & then read it @micha_frazer

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.

A series of posts about some of the important books behind mine, UberTherapy published this week by @bristoluniversitypress. First by US psychotherapists including Linda Michaels @psianofficial. If you're a UK therapist this is the first step in understanding the uberization.

A thing of real usefulness - journalists toolbox around digital security. Something useful for trade unionists and UberTherapists alike.
