About me
I am licensed in Florida with 50 years of professional work experience. I have experience in working with clients in many different areas. I started my career working with Substance Abusers (both Alcohol and Drugs). My first professional position was as the Director of a 60 bed residential program for men and women. The first ten years of my career was devoted to all types of addictions. After this point in my career I added to my interests by becoming licensed as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Michigan. I have also practiced as an LMFT in Florida. Being trained as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker LCSW and an LMFT has afforded me the options of working with clients who are dealing with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, (many years working at the United States Department of Veteran's Affairs both on the crisis team and at three different Vet Centers working with PTSD and many trauma survivors. I was also a Hospice Social Worker working with clients who were coping with grief and loss, & depression. I work with couples to repair trust whether it stems from an affair, or believing you have fallen out of love; teaching them to improve communication, and strengthen their emotional intimacy with each other. I will work with to develop a treatment plan that is realistic. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage; as well as a desire to try and put the marriage back together. I am proud of you for getting started!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Barry Harnick. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Great therapist!
Barry has lots of experience and exercises for couples to try, if both are willing to participate.
Mr. Harnick is our third therapist and the first one that has helped us have tremendous breakthrough in our communication and improvement of the quality of our marriage
