Melanie Barrett, Psychiatrist

“While every person in the several offices that I've met are very kind, personable, genuinely care about their clients, and competent at getting their paperwork and patient organization well covered, the phone lines absolutely have to be fixed! I have never been able to speak to anyone at any location where I was not on hold for at least 10 to 15 minutes. This is completely unacceptable, especially having literally 14 different phone numbers. It has made many, many clients extremely frustrated.”

“Dr. Barrett is one of the kindest, most down-to-earth, and knowledgeable doctors I know! She has been a huge help to me over the last three years. I refer everyone to her that needs her help.”

“Dr. Barrett is amazing and I’m so grateful to have found her and the team at Lifestance in Edmond. She’s ultra-compassionate, supportive and is by far the most knowledgeable psychiatrist I’ve ever used. She’s a life saver, literally. Also, Jennifer Dunning, PA, is equally awesome. Together they have given me such excellent support and resources to be my strongest self.”

“This was an amazing appt! And I have not been saying that about my Dr appts of late, especially regarding my new ADHD diagnosis. I’m late-diagnosed ADHD (this past summer, at age 51) and the struggle has been SO REAL to find an effective medication. My GP referred me to LifeStance for med management & so this was my 2nd appt here and the 1st with Dr. Barrett. (1st was with the PA, Skye Helker, with whom I was also impressed — I was just still maybe too “raw” to feel much hope from my appt with her 3 weeks ago.) After 7 months of defeat and crushed hope, I honestly did not think it possible to have hope on this issue restored until, and unless, a med started working. So for Dr. Barrett to even give me hope before meds was… mind blowing, to be honest. She listened & asked insightful questions. She was awesome. Plus, no one else has offered me ADHD coaching, and that issue was raised at both this, and the initial appointment. So… here’s to hope!”
