Barry Stevens (therapist) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Barry Stevens (1902-1985) was a writer and Gestalt therapist. She developed her own form of Gestalt therapy body work, based on the awareness of body processes. For the human potential movement of the 1970s, she became a kind of "star", but she always refused to accept that role. She worked - among others - with the psychotherapists Fritz Perls and Carl Rogers. Bertrand Russel and Aldous Huxley were among her friends.
