The Inspired Work of

Dr. Josh Friedman, Psy.D.

About Dr. Josh Friedman, Psy.D.

Dr. Friedman earned his doctorate in Psychology for New York University and received Post-Doctoral Training in Psychoanalysis for the Training and research institute for Self Psychology in New York City. He worked as an eating disorders psychotherapist at the esteemed Renfrew Center of New York and is on the Faculty of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. For more than 10 years he has worked as a psychologist with adults, couples and Families. As his practice has evolved, it became clear to him that something was missing from traditional psychotherapeutic approaches. Curiosity and a chance meeting led him to discover the word of Nutritional Psychology, which teaches that many psychological issues are caused or made worse by underlying biochemical/ nutritional deficiencies. Further exploration led him to the practice of yoga, with its emphasis on breathing, meditation and movement for emotional centering. To enhance his effectiveness in helping patients to heal and grow, he became certified as Holistic Health Counselor at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York. To go deeper into the hidden physical causes of mental health symptoms, he has studied with nutritional mental health leaders, Dr. William Walsh and Julia Ross. Additionally, Dr. Friedman became a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and is close to becoming a “Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner” through Functional Medicine University. Dr. Friedman’s practice in Omaha, Nebraska offers integrative psychotherapy services which combines the healing power of insight-oriented psychotherapy with education about lifestyle and nutritional tools that have shown scientific efficacy in improving mental health symptoms. He also has a telehealth business, Alternative Mental Health Solution, that offers functional medicine help for people with mental health issues in the US and around the world.
