Good psychiatrists are worth their weight in gold and just as rare. I am fortunate to have connected with Dr. Judy Friedman. While in a state of personal crisis during COVID, I could not secure an appointment with a psychiatrist that wasn't weeks into the future. I discovered Dr. Friedman online; she took me on and provided a virtual in-take session the same week. Since then, she has provided effective therapeutic diagnosis, guidance, and medication management. Looking back, I'm in awe at how much progress I've made. In multiple ways, I feel like a new person. The anxiety and heartbreak are in the past, much credit to her support. Dr. Friedman's style is a bit "old school"; she can be refreshingly direct but always empathetic and non-judgemental. She's also a responsive doctor who will answer your call/return texts promptly. If you are looking for a psychiatrist to provide real therapy and responsible medication management, Dr. Judy Friedman is the best I've experienced.
