Beautiful Minds Talking Therapy — Counsellor in Liverpool, England

My 15 year old son was not in a good place mentally due to trauma and aggression challenges. I reached out to Barry who returned my email immediately and it was arranged for my son to see Barry within the week. He has maintained fortnightly appointments for 6 sessions. I cannot begin to explain the difference it has made to him. His perspective on life, school and his aggression management has completely changed. I feel that Barry has not only helped in the right now, but also armed him with tools that will support him throughout his life. We now know that Barry is there should my son ever feel he needs to talk in the future, and that alone is supportive. Thank you so much for the difference you have made Barry, to us all during this difficult time for my family and I.

I have seen Barry for the past 3 years, he has been an excellent support through the most difficult times in my life. I look forward to my sessions and always feel understood and heard by Barry. I would recommend anyone to use Barry's services for any issues you are struggling with.

Barry's wonderful. Cuts through the BS and speaks incredibly truthfully - but also is very reactive and exploratory. He doesn't tell you what to do, but I find he is willing to take a stance on stuff, which for me is super helpful.

Therapy has helped me immensely. I always debated whether to do it or not, but so happy I did. Barry has been an incredible listener and sounding board, giving different points of view and tips / coping mechanisms, that I have put into practice with great results! He's helped me through childhood issues, coping with ADHD, and navigating this troubled world. Could not recommend enough, thank you for all the help and support Barry!

Barry is the most incredible therapist ever. He is so easy to talk to and has got me thinking in a way I never have before, I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you barry

Sounds strange to say it but had it not been for my past traumas (leading to anxiety, clinical depression & suicidal thoughts), I would never have met Barry - and I am so grateful I did. He is an extraordinary person - his listening skills, insights, wisdom & advice are exceptional. He guided me back to hope and peace and I will be forever grateful.

I came into therapy very dubious as to whether Barry or any Counsellor could help me with my issues. Barry was able to ally my fears. Although counselling was sometimes emotional and hard, during our sessions Barry was always empathetic and his insights allowed me to see my life more clearly, especially the habits that were no longer useful to me. Barry's holistic approach, his warmth and unconditional positive regard, created an environment, where I felt safe, listened to and heard. I very much appreciated Barry's unfailing kindness, his ability to interpret and clarify my sometimes muddled thoughts, his presence and humour in our work together and most importantly his belief in me.This has helped me reach a place where, thanks to Barry, I have developed new skills and attitude to deal with life. And all is well at the moment. I highly recommend him.

I went to Barry when I was in a very low place. What a kind, patient and soothing person he is. He helped me to understand why I felt the way I did and the process helped me to make changes in my life. He is empathetic, supportive and honest. I wouldn’t hesitate to see him again if I needed to ( and I may well need to!) knowing that this service is there is brilliant. I would highly recommend Barry.

I am a couple of sessions into my time working with Barry and I am really looking forward to future sessions. Barry is a really calming influence who is guiding me through my issues with support, understanding and a deep knowledge of human behaviour. If you are thinking of seeking help /support I highly recommend Barry This is an update after my sessions with Barry. I can't thank him enough for his help. I am leaving therapy with Barry a more rounded individual with a much better understand of myself and what it is to be happy within myself. Barry is a great listener and has a great take on life through a lifetime of experience. He really has helped me and ultimately my family.

Barry has been an inspiration. I had visited a few therapists before starting with Barry, it was refreshing to find a therapist who actually listened and empathised and not just following text-book responses. I found his feedback and advice both illuminating and encouraging. He has literally saved my life and has totally changed the way I think about myself and approach and deal with challenging situations. Barry's calm demeanour and open friendliness has made my sessions feel as though I have been in company of an insightful good friend. Thank you.
