She was wonderful to me for 5 years. I lost my son. She was so understanding, thoughtful, compassionate. I would not be here or be able to raise my daughter without dr. Barwell's help. She is a wonderful person.

Dr Barwell is one of the best psychiatrists I have had the pleasure of meeting. I work in mental health myself and have met plenty of doctors, making me even more grateful that Dr Barwell is my doctor. She is prompt, personable, funny, smart and considerate. She takes the time to talk to you instead of just writing a bunch of prescriptions and pushing you out the door in less than 10 mins.

Here is my review for Dr. Barwell....Thank you for never giving up on me. When my head was to heavy to lift and my eyes to teary to see, you were there to lift my spirit. When I gave up on myself you put out your hand and pulled me up. You gave me hope that one day, my broken pieces will fit together again. If it wasn't for you Dr. Barwell I wouldn't be writing this review today. But I am here and Happier than I ever thought was possible. Thank You for simply being you. sincerely Me

Dr. Barwell has been treating myself and 2 of my teenagers (one of which has passed away from complications due to a car accident)for over 2 years now. She has been able to help us through some very traumatic times as well as your normal, teen issues, divorce, etc.
