Edited by: Nola Doyle on 07/06/2010 04:04:21 The natural flow of life ebbs and swells with success and failure. We cherish the triumphant moments while the pain and frustration of failure serve as building blocks in personal growth. Even if everyone experiences this to varying proportions, the capsuleer is no less vulnerable to the effects of pshychological stress and anxiety, yet are often neglected as inhuman or too powerful to be overcome by this intangible foe.
How many of you have known fellow pilots who have retired within a year or less from the trauma of life in a capsule? How many have simply disappeared, never to be seen again? Countless others suffer from serious trauma, depression, addiction, or self-destructive habits and never get the help they truly deserve.
Experienced in both human behavior therapy techniques and extensive education in diagnosis and treatment of major mental disorders, I am offering my services to the pod pilot community. As a pilot of five years, my experience in this society enables a unique insight into the lifestyle and mindset of the capsuleer. For a modest fee of two-hundred and fifty thousand ISK, you will receive a one-on-one session in the privacy of a secure virtual office from the safety and convenience of your own capsule. All sessions conducted within these offices are considered confidential and secure, and under no circumstances will this commitment be broken. All participants are welcome to as many visits as needed to achieve personal fulfillment. Sessions generally last an hour on average and may continue longer or shorter dependent on our progress.
Please contact me via FTL mail along with your availability (days and times). Payment will not be requested until prior to the session.
Life in New Eden can be difficult, but you don't have to suffer alone. Together we can heal even the deepest wounds.
Dr. Nola J. Doyle Co-CEO, Therapist, NeuroGEN

Given that it would be a Virtual Reality environment, do you not feel that Dr. Doyle has accepted they may have concerns and offered them a protected environment?

I think the diagnosis you're grasping at is "Acute Cyber-Psychosis" which is common among young capsuleers who are still adjusting to their new cybernetic implants.
I can assure you that I am not paranoid, though I do suffer from a mild case of luposlipaphobia.

I'd be interested in getting a session, if only to see what kind of advice you give.
A pity, however, that I have no issues that need advising. - - -

Well, that's impressive in a remarkably "Huh?" and also "Say what?" sort of way. If this was a serious attempt at diagnosis as opposed to a remarkably poor attempt at a joke....
I'm speechless, Ms. Doyle. Well done.

I think Her Grimness Jamyl I could use a few sessions Doc. From what I understand (read it in the tabloid press--so it's gotta be true, right?) she hears voices and answers them. Hell, I'll even pay for the sessions if she promises to take one of those Naqam Happy Chips. I mean seriously, have you ever seen a holo where that broad smiled? What you want is irrelevant. What you've chosen is at hand. |

That's a remarkably tidy disclosure, Dr. Doyle. Though -- ah, mercies, it's not clear here if you've separated your identity as therapist from your role as NeuroGEN's Co-CEO. While you have stated that 'all sessions conducted within those offices are considered confidential' and so forth, you've not declared whether or not the transcripts of those sessions and any associated extrapolated data will be considered the intellectual property of NeuroGEN and its ... well, let us say stakeholders, hmm?
I can certainly appreciate the desire to further the research efforts of one's corporation. I also quite understand that there may be situations where absolute candor could undermine that desire.
In these peculiar times, though, shouldn't one risk clarity? |

If only that was true.
And Ms. Fauconnier, NeuroGEN is a private company with no active shares beyond myself and Ms. Blackheart. However, to assuage your concerns, I assure you that none of the sessions will be recorded or transcribed for reproduction beyond the session's virtual chambers.

You know, were I an un-ethical person (perish the thought) seeking to uncover dirt on people, with which to blackmail them... this is how I'd go about it.

You're delusional, that was years ago.
However Dr. Doyle's side project here is unaffiliated with NeuroGEN. Though she is Co-CEO in our endeavors for the company, her Psychological efforts are a private practice.

Er, Ms. Callibri, I think Ms. Blackheart was making a joke.
As in, "No, we didn't recently declare our loyalty; we've been loyal for years!"
The rest of her post distinguished Ms. Doyle's psychotherapy from corporate activities. This would be unnecessary if there was no reason to be suspicious of the corporation.
It strikes me as deeply insufficient reassurance in any case, mind you.

Syn will do, I'm not much of one for plesantries.
Agreed...I simply felt the need to put out evidence supporting the suspicion of thier corporation. In the event that less informed minds actually considered this "service".
I guess its no stretch of the imagination to consider this "psychotherapy" a weakly disgused attempt to garner "liberated souls" from the mentally ill and weak minded of the empires for the Sansha Nation.
Of course, this shift in tactics is an interesting development...from a psychological perspective that is.

I understand how difficult this can be for you to perceive compassion from a foe you've spent months dehumanizing. However, my associations are irrelevent to the purpose of this advertisement. Unless of course you're petrified that my techniques just might rehabilitate your peers.
In fact, Aria, because you seem so committed to publicising my endeavor, the least I could do is offer a session free of charge.

I think I'm willing to give this a go, if for no reason other then as an experiment. If it turns out this is a covert attempt to recruit unwitting pilots to support Sansha's nation, well, only one way to find out, if it turns out Ms. Doyle is honest in her side project, then I can look the other way from her dealings with Sansha, I am not currently engaged in combat operations against Ms. Doyle, therefore, I see no reason why we cannot cooperate. I put opportunities before grudges.

Months? Oh, no, sweetie.
Years.
Somebody had to get in the way of the Nation "we're actually benevolent, no really" public relations blitz after IzzyChan's implants had their way with my old friend Kostantin.
I was willing to give Silver Night the benefit of the doubt because he successfully convinced me that his aim was to redeem the nation in fact, not just in appearance.
You? Not so much. How is your sister, by the way?
Quote: However, my associations are irrelevent to the purpose of this advertisement. Unless of course you're petrified that my techniques just might rehabilitate your peers.
You know, the funny thing is, I suspect you might just have something to offer? Assuming your last "diagnosis" was a joke, anyway. If any faction can claim a strong understanding of how a mind works, in the most literal sense, it's probably the Nation.
However, the fact that it is the Nation doing this-- the unredeemed Nation, as of yet, despite the efforts of people like Chell Charon and Silver-- poisons the offering. Even if you cannot get your hooks into people using your contact methods, it's entirely likely that the Nation proper hasn't actually had much opportunity to examine capsuleer psychology. The implanted ones are already modified, making them bad study subjects, and the ones working with it freely are not an adequately broad pool to properly study "The Capsuleer Mind."
This would be where you come in.
I've heard a little of your reputation, Ms. Doyle-- science without limits, isn't it? So why is it, exactly, that you're suddenly going from researcher to therapist?
Unless you've got something else in mind, that is.
Coming from the Nation, this would be suspicious. Coming from you, this would be suspicious. Coming from you and the Nation?
Quote: In fact, Aria, because you seem so committed to publicising my endeavor, the least I could do is offer a session free of charge.
I take it you've never heard about those studies showing that there actually is such a thing as negative publicity.
That, or you're hoping I haven't.

true I suppose, on the other hand, the information shouldn't be terribly useful against me, its not like I have any deep dark secrets that could be used as weapons. on the gripping hand, she's really the only therapist out there right now, its not like I have a myriad of non-nation capsular therapists to choose from.

If that helps you achieve a moral victory, then far be it for me to take that away from you. I'm not cruel, after all; we've never crossed paths and I don't hold petty animosity towards distant adversaries.
I'm glad you have a sense of humor, though. I was...concerned.
And to answer your question, human behavior has recently become an interest of mine as I deluge further into our subculture. Until recently, piloting has been more of a novelty than an opportunity, but an adjustment in perspective has yielded good fortune.
As for my sister, she is well, thank you for asking. I owe her more than you could ever understand. She believed in my work when no one else would and was instrumental to drawing my initial interest in behavioral science. Lillith witnessed firsthand the progress made under the employment of Rho Dynamics. I felt it was an suitable opportunity to return the favor in kind.
If I continue any longer I'll have to start charging.

Nikita:
She's really just the only one claiming to be a psychotherapist. There are other counselors-- I've even worked with a number of troubled capsuleers myself. There's necessarily a little spirituality involved there, however; as you'll have noticed, that's where my "world" finds its center.
The same seems to be broadly true of other counselors: we're mostly just perceptive capsuleers who are more comfortable than most in our own skins. Usually that means some strong beliefs, whatever their nature.
For the record, I used to visit a (human) psychotherapist, myself. It didn't do a bit of good, but perhaps Nola is better-positioned to help. Whether she'll actually help, now ... well, maybe she will.
It's your own choice, of course. But therapy must necessarily involve a lot of trust, and in this particular case? I wouldn't.
Ms. Frost:
Do tell. Please. Kaleigh Doyle was looking like a very interesting person, and I'd like to know, in detail, what's become of her.
Ms. Doyle:
Quote: If that helps you achieve a moral victory, then far be it for me to take that away from you. I'm not cruel, after all; we've never crossed paths and I don't hold petty animosity towards distant adversaries.
Trying to rise above. Very good. But it doesn't work so well if you can't avoid making implicit snippy remarks in the process.
Still, you could be a worthwhile opponent.
Moral victories aren't really my style, but stripping away pretty illusions very much is. The Nation is quite the nest of illusions. And like you, I take great interest in human-- and capsuleer-- behavior.
Strange as it may sound, whatever your, ah, situation with your sister, I can probably relate. While I lack siblings, I have a large extended family-- now down two humans and plus one infomorph thanks to the depth of feeling between us.
However, as it happens, I sort of like Kaleigh....
