Nick Duffell

Nick Duffell, MA, practiced therapy for over three decades, trains psychotherapists, and calls himself a psychohistorian. He promotes a depth-psychology perspective of issues that deeply affect public life, such as identity and emotions, fear and vulnerability. He is best known as the author who asserts that elite boarding schools represent a trauma for children and a social and political handicap for nations. His books include The Simpol Solution: A New Way to Think about Solving the World’s Biggest Problems (2018 with John Bunzl) and Wounded Leaders: British Elitism and the Entitlement Illusion – a Psychohistory (2014).
