One meaning of the term psychological barriers is the self limiting beliefs a person may have which in turn affects their behaviour - that is ....what they do or don't do as a result of having a self limiting belief.
For example, an person might have a belief that they can't ride a bicycle and carry this belief with them through their life, and as such they would never attempt to ride a bicycle. This belief will usually have been developed as a result of their past experience - they may have tried to ride a bicycle as a young child, perhaps they started to ride but fell off - hurting themselves in the process. If they tried to ride again shortly after the first accident, and subsequently fell off again, hurting themselves, they would perhaps begin to believe that they can't ride a bicycle. And they will hold this belief or psychological barrier until they receive sufficiently strong evidence to change this belief.
There is no reason, for example, why a fit and able bodied adult cannot learn to ride a bike in adulthood. But if that person has a psychological barrier which tells them that they can't do this - then they probably never will.
In my field of being a career coach I often see people who have psychological barriers which prevent them from starting a job search to change a job or career that they hate. They don't take action for change because they have a usually incorrect belief that they aren't good enough, don't have enough or the right type of experience, don't have the confidence etc.
If you are a healthy and otherwise reasonably well adjusted adult you will have the capacity to challenge and overcome your psychological barriers.

What are the barriers to effective listening?
In the listening process there are things that interfere with or get in the way of effective listening. We call these situational thoughts and actions barriers to listening. In any situation, barriers prevent effective communication. These barriers can be within ourselves (psychological), in the communication situation or environment (such as noise or other distractions), or they can be learned from our social or cultural associations and influences (like reactions to stereotypical labels or ethnocentric rituals).The most salient listening barriers for most people are psychological, intra-personal, or situational. These can include intrapersonal distractions such as interior "noise," semantic noise, information overload, perceptions of the speaker, or self perceptions and personal biases that get in the way of listening to others. There are also situational noise/distractions, physical and otherwise that should be managed if we are to listen at our best.
