Introduction of Sean Friedman Psychologist
About Sean Friedman Psychologist
I am trained to diagnose, assess, and treat across the range of mental health disorders as well as difficulties and problems that are subclinical.
I work with school age children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, and other difficulties often manifest differently according to developmental period, gender, and culture. I take care to diagnose carefully given these and other considerations.
I have trained, and continue to further my training in several approaches, most notably Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I use these in tandem to help people to better understand themselves, clarify what is most important in their lives, own their choices and space in the world, and develop skills and life strategies that enable and support the taking of action that aligns to their values and goals.
I have found myself working considerably with Trauma and its effects. Depression, Anxiety (particularly Panic and Social), dissociative states, and impaired sense of self are common, especially from Complex or repeated experiences of trauma.As such I a special interest in the following areas:
Mood and Identity Disturbances
Anxiety: Panic, Social Anxiety, and OCD
Complex Trauma and Healing the Relationship with the Self & Others
Young Men and Women
Gender and Relationship Issues
Attention Deficit (and Hyperactivity) Disorders
Developmental Concerns: Career / Purpose / Spirituality / Relationships
Treatment is focussed on integrating difficult experience, while building skills to increase one's ability to handle difficulties, tolerate discomfort and uncertainty, and take action in line with what is most important to oneself.
