Looking forward to long term care relationship with Dr. Howell. I was comfortable enough with her to open up completely.
I love Dr. Howell! She is an exceptional psychiatrist who truly goes above and beyond for her patients. From the very first session, her compassionate and attentive approach made me feel heard and understood. She took the time to thoroughly explain treatment options, tailoring her care to meet my individual needs. Her professionalism is outstanding, and her ability to create a safe, judgment-free environment is remarkable. She not only addressed my immediate concerns but also worked to build long-term mental wellness. I left my appt. feeling supported and hopeful. If you’re looking for a psychiatrist who genuinely cares about your well-being, I can’t recommend Dr. Howell highly enough!

Dr. Howell showed me that she cared about my issues, that is what I look for in a doctor.

I saw Dr. Howell for a telehealth consultation and it was an enriching experience. She is compassionate and helpful, despite a clearly busy schedule. You don’t meet many doctors who hold the space she does, who still manage to validate and accurately diagnose. There was room for questions and discussion, even after a longer session. I never once felt rushed. I look forward to our next appointment, and would recommend Dr. Howell to anyone who wants an attentive and THOROUGH psychiatrist. She cares about others, and deserves the position that she undoubtedly worked hard to be in. 10/10
After six years of searching, I finally found a compassionate and intelligent psychiatrist. Dr. Howell truly listens and puts your needs first. She doesn't chastise or talk down to you like many Dr.'s. I need to ask her where she went to school so I can send my old psychiatrists back there! Hahaha but for such a challenging speciality, Dr. Howell gives it her all and can think outside the box. I am so grateful for her continuing care and give her my highest recommendation.
Dr. Howell is an excellent patient advocate. She listens very well, is professional and knowledgeable. I've already referred people to her.
Dr. Iyantta S. Howell's Care is Remarkable!!!
Dr. Howell was very professional and listened to what I had to say. She didn't judge my past and was very open minded when it came to diagnosing me. I am very happy with Lifestance.
Dr. Howell is one of the few Psychiatrists that really understands the full lifetime and family history required to properly diagnose ADHD in adults. She's thorough, up to date, and pragmatic in her approach and treatment, taking co-occurring disorders and age-related variables into consideration. I rarely give a full 5 stars; Dr. Howell deserves it. I strongly recommend her.
Dr. Howell was very kind and helpful! She listened to all of my questions and concerns and explained everything clearly to me.
