The Rise of Therapy-Speak 04/26/2021

Reminder that our next meeting is TOMORROW, Monday 4/26 at 7:00pm EST! We’ll be discussing “The Rise of Therapy-Speak,” which considers the effects of therapy terminology entering our daily lingo. If you’ve ever used the word “triggered” or heard someone organized described as “OCD,” then you’re personally familiar with this phenomenon! As always, we’ll start by summarizing the article (so reading it is optional!) and move into an informal discussion where all opinions are welcome!

The Zoom link was sent out via email, so check your email or DM to be added to the listserv to join! See you there!

The Rise of Therapy-Speak How a language got off the couch and into the world.
