Melissa Barber, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC

Melissa Barber is a dual board-certified family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with eight years of advanced practice experience. She earned her family nurse practitioner degree from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette in 2018 and later returned to ULL to complete her post-master’s certificate in psychiatric mental health nursing. Her clinical background spans internal medicine, pulmonology, sleep medicine, aesthetics, psychiatry & psychotherapy.

She founded Savoir Health & Wellness to offer the attentive, concierge-style care she believes patients deserve—with more time for conversation, thoughtful evaluation, and an individualized approach to treatment.

Her approach considers physical health, emotional well-being, sleep, and lifestyle together, including medical conditions that may contribute to mental health symptoms. She partners with patients to build a plan that reflects their needs, goals, and daily lives.

“My goal is for every patient to feel understood and leave with hope—a sense that they are on the right path toward lasting wellness.”

Let’s work together on your journey toward a beautiful mind & a beautiful life.
