There is an interesting book from the seventies which may assist you.
"The Crisis of Autonomy: The Existentialist Critique of Freud" by Gerald
N. Izenberg might be a place to start. While it does not address
Foucault per se, it might be a starting place; it seems to me you are
really intersecting three things, namely psychoanalysis, existentialism
(the book discusses Heidegger and Sartre), and Foucault. Don't be sad,
'cause two out of three ain't bad, ja?
Good luck,
