About Yaakov

My name is Yaakov Barr. I was born in Manchester, England. Although it’s a while since I’ve been a teen, in my work as a psychotherapist, I have been blessed with working together with and helping many hundreds of teens lead happier lives. Being a parent of two teens gives me some more ‘qualifications’ and I look forward to work together with you too! 

I am an accredited psychotherapist specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as well as having extensive experience as a clinical supervisor.  

I am a founder and current CEO of JTeen, an organization that empowers Jewish teenagers in the UK and Europe through its in-demand support line, workshops and training programs for parents and teachers.
