He is also a prolific writer, and has written about a range of subjects such as humanistic, existential, and relational approaches to therapy. Mick’s latest book, “Psychology at the Heart of Social Change: Developing a Progressive Vision for Society”, delves into the idea of using psychology to transform the political landscape.
