Brittany Barber's holistic approach to psychiatric care has been extremely beneficial to me. Not only does she ask about my mental health, but my physical health as well. She has made an effort to get to know me and therefore treat me more properly.

Great first visit.
Very thorough and convenient.
Brittany is great. She pushes you as a patient to move out of your comfort zone, so you have to be open to that type of therapy. Other than that, I have no complaints.
Brittany was recommended by a friend, she was absolutely correct, Brittany is a breath of fresh air in psychiatry! She straight forward, a great listener and smart!

Waste of time and money. Didn't listen to me at all and didn't provide any services.. Wish she would have told me BEFORE our appointment that she wasn't going to help me. Extremely disappointed.

This was my first psychiatry appointment. Dr. Blalock was patient, warm, and personable. It felt like she was truly listening to understand, which meant a lot as finally seeking psychiatric help was a big step for me. I would definitely recommend her.

Dr. Blalock made me feel comfortable and heard. She also is not just trying to push certain medication, like a lot of other psychiatrists do.

If you have anything legal that’s going on in your life this is not the person you need to go to she will immediately discharge her self for the care of you. I have a legal situation that’s very unique, I didn’t even give me a chance to explain the situation, cut me off and proceeded to recommend another psychiatrist.

Very thankful for Brittany’s help. I was struggling and couldn’t get a sooner appointment with my regular psychiatrist. She listened attentively and tried to help me come to a solution. Happy with the outcome

I am never one to leave negative reviews. However, this experience affected me negatively. I am someone who has been previously medicated for ADHD and OCD. I told her that the worst period of my entire life was when I was on SSRI antidepressants. I told her that when my ADHD was medicated, almost all of my anxiety disappeared, and I told her which medicine worked best for me. Not only did she condescendingly dismiss what I was trying to tell her, she actually insisted she prescribe me an SSRI antidepressant, and I had to tell her repeatedly that I was uncomfortable with that. She dismissed me when I told her about my previous medications , and she was visibly frustrated with me. When I told her I have proof of my past prescriptions, her attitude changed. She didn't believe me until I sajd I had proof. And she said she wouldn't prescribe me an ADHD stimulant until I sent proof. The cherry on the cake was that she prescribed me both an antipsychotic as a sleep pill, but she also prescribed me an SSRI after I basically pleaded with her not to. The second day of taking the medications she prescribed me, I experienced heart spasms and nose bleeds.

I feel like I’m in good hands. I was listened to and provided a course of action that I think will help. Grateful I found her.
