Critical psychology is an area within psychology that goes back to the late 1960s and that agrees with a lot of the criticism in OP and in your comment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_psychology

If you are interested in learning more I have found these two books to be good introductions to the topic:

- "Psychology, Subjectivity, and Society: An Introduction to German Critical Psychology" by Charles Tolman

- "Psychology from the Standpoint of the Subject: Selected Writings of Klaus Holzkamp" edited by Ernst Schraube and Ute Osterkamp.
