Barry Stevens (therapist)

Barry Stevens, born Mildred Fox (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 Russell and Aldous Huxley were among her friends.

Famous quotes containing the words barry and/or stevens:

    But whether on the scaffold high,
    Or in the battle’s van,
    The fittest place where man can die
    Is where he dies for man.
    —Michael J. Barry (1817–1889)

    Words add to the senses. The words for the dazzle
    Of mica, the dithering of grass,
    The Arachne integument of dead trees,
    Are the eye grown larger, more intense.
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
