Serving Drexel Hill, Havertown, Broomall, Springfield, Media, Delaware County (DelCo) & the Main Line, PennsylvaniaDr. Noah D. Freedman, Psychiatrist
Dr. Noah D. Freedman, Psychiatrist
I am a Board-Certified psychiatrist with over 15 years experience in general adult and adolescent psychiatry. I have extensive experience in the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders and am familiar with the use of a wide range of medications for the treatment of depressive, anxiety, bipolar, ADHD, and psychotic disorders. I'm a skilled psychotherapist with special training in the treatment of trauma and short-term psychodynamic psychotherapy. As a psychotherapist, I want to help you to identify your goals and desires, so that you may connect with what is most important to you, helping you clear away anxieties and rationalizations that keep you stuck.
I also have an interest in alternative approaches to treatment. In addition to psychotherapy and/or psychiatric medication, I will work with you to identify lifestyle and dietary changes, supplements for mood support, and herbal remedies which can help promote mental, physical, and emotional well-being. I will also refer you to neurofeedback treatment if it is appropriate and you are interested in that modality.
If you are willing, I can offer you an extended psychotherapeutic holistic evaluation which has the potential to rapidly uncover your core issues and help you make a deep and new beginning in your liberation from self imposed suffering. Please contact the office to tell them you wish to discuss this option with me.
