What happens when healing becomes a market? In this solo episode, Travis Heath explores what he calls the therapy industrial complex and asks a provocative question: When human suffering becomes economically valuable, what incentives does that create? Through personal reflection, Travis examines how economic forces shape the profession of therapy. From speaking engagements and conferences to branded modalities and trademarked language, he considers whether the mental health field simply responds to increasing demand—or whether it also participates in creating it. This is a thoughtful conversation about therapy, ethics, economics, and the questions we often avoid asking.
