COMING SOON…a most important work of interest to all practitioners, seekers and those involved in the psychological and psychiatric healing arts: WHILE PSYCHIATRY SLEPT: Reawakening the Imagination in Therapy, by Dr. George Mecouch, psychiatrist, with Foreword by Jungian Analyst Russell A. Lockhart, Ph. D., will be published on May 1, 2018. Pre-orders will be available on Amazon in April. Highly recommended by Thomas Moore (“Beautiful, original, daring”), Amy and Arnold Mindell (“Mecouch envisions a new future for psychiatry”), and Will Hall (“A vital antidote to our era’s debilitating epidemic of ‘evidence-based’ medicine”), host of KBOO-FM’s Madness Radio.

Lockhart writes in his Foreword:

"It may be too much to expect older practitioners to open themselves to change. Like the old church fathers, they will not look through the Galilean telescope that story-mind makes possible. Most everything animates against it. But for the newer and younger practitioner, those not yet straight-jacketed in the certainties of dogma, those still open to risk, these stories of the art of healing may catch hold of the mind and heart, and open up possibilities for creating new and unexpected modes of working in the future."
