Are You Depressed?
Are you suffering from Depression & Anxiety? Have you seen a GP who has prescribed anti-depressants that haven’t helped that much? Have you realised that perhaps it is time to get some professional help?
There is no doubt about it: life in London is highly stressful. You may be dealing with complex employment and relationship issues that can easily lead to emotional problems. I offer compassionate, modern and intelligent therapy for my clients. I aim to help you get back on track in as few sessions as possible.
As a senior executive who has lived and worked in Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia, Continental Europe, and the USA, I have a great deal of experience and cultural understanding of working with clients from London’s diverse international population.
My clients have come from South Africa, Uganda, Brazil, Argentina, The Dominican Republic, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Ukraine, the United States and Canada, as well as the EU and, of course, the UK.

Client Comments
"Working with Barry has been a transformative journey of self-discovery and growth. Initially seeking help due to persistent anxiety caused by life challenging events and relocation to another country, Barry's support became an invaluable anchor. His kindness, unwavering encouragement, and insightful guidance provided a safe haven where I could explore and evolve myself. Barry's humour infused our sessions with warmth and authenticity, fostering a connection akin to confiding in a trusted friend. Through his expertise, I've acquired coping mechanisms to navigate anxiety and newfound motivation to embrace life's uncertainties. I wholeheartedly recommend working with Barry; his personalized approach fosters profound positive change."

I have worked with several therapists, but I can say, that with Barry I feel like a friend, a friend, who really cares about me and is always eager to help. I know that he is a kind person, intelligent and has much experience and led an interesting life. He is helping me with my OCD, anxiety, and depression. I am from Ukraine, and I am a woman, of course, every country has a different mentality, but I believe, that Barry can work with people from different countries and cultures, he has travelled a lot and has many stories to tell. He has been helping me for more than a year. I always feel that he is near, though we are many kilometres from each other. He is happy when I have good news and cares and helps me when I am sad. He cares like he is a relative, like a father. Many people do not believe in psychology, but I know that it helps, and I know that Barry has chosen this profession, because he wants to help people, to help them to go forward in this complicated life. Thank you, Barry, for coming into my life and being supportive, always.

I am a highly sensitive young man, and I have worked with Barry for about two years. As a civilian dealing with unemployment, depression, and a career change during the war in Ukraine, we had plenty to discuss.
Barry relied on humour, anecdotes, stoicism- and mindfulness-based practices, as well as colourful metaphors to provide support, kindness, and practical life advice that helped me navigate several personal and family issues.
As a therapist, Barry is more rugged and empirical than academic or psychoanalytic. You can expect an emphasis on practical, straightforward solutions. Overall, I would call it effective.
I believe that I benefited from his life coaching, which helped me track goals and stay focused on what mattered the most. He is also a good coach for matters related to corporate and professional areas of life.
Due to his cosmopolitan life experiences, Barry is adept at relating to people from a wide range of cultures, religions, professions, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I also recommend him to men who could benefit from an older male role model.
Knowing there was someone kind, wise, and competent to whom I could turn for advice helped me survive some tough times.
