My Philosophy

We all have our own story and health journey.

I believe healing begins when we tell our story to someone who is willing to listen. From there we can uncover the imbalances and obstacles that may be standing in the way, all while establishing a healthy environment for the mind, body, and soul. By blending nutrition, herbal medicine, targeted supplementation, and homeopathy, I provide you with personalized healthcare options. I want to hear your story.

Together, let’s take the first step towards healing.

The Core Principles of Naturopathic Medicine

 

First Do No Harm

I aim to use the least invasive and most effective treatment options first, in order to reduce unnecessary side effects.

The Healing Power of Nature

I recognize that deep within our bodies there are many inherent self healing mechanisms. By removing the obstacles to health, we can facilitate healing.

Treat the Whole Person

We are more than just our physical symptoms. I always acknowledge all of the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and environmental factors that affect our health and well being.

Treat the Root Cause

I strive to identify and treat the underlying root cause of disease rather than focusing solely on symptom suppression.

Doctor as Teacher

Knowledge is power. I take the time to educate patients to best understand their health so that they can take an active role.

Prevention

I choose a preventative approach to healthcare.

education

I am a licensed naturopathic doctor. I attended medical school at the National University of Natural Medicine, where I was trained as a primary care physician. I have also received additional certifications in pelvic floor therapy and cranialsacral therapy. Prior to naturopathic medical school, I received my bachelor’s degree in human biology, with minors in holistic health and biochemistry from the University of Southern Maine in Portland.

 

Meet Dr. Hannah Freeman

From a young age, I felt called to medicine. I was lucky enough to witness the birth of my younger sister, and from then on I dreamed of guiding women through pregnancy and birth. It wasn't until my undergraduate studies that I discovered my passion for nutrition and natural methods of healing. This discovery led me to naturopathic medicine, where I get to blend my love of nature with my love of science. I absolutely love my job, and I am so happy to serve my fellow Mainers.

Outside the Office

Ask anyone, and they will tell you how much I love Maine. We are so lucky to live in this beautiful place surrounded by incredible people. I grew up in Scarborough, and have spent much of my life in the Portland area. I also have ties to both Millinocket and Downeast, making them two of my very favorite places.

On the weekends, you can find me enjoying the outdoors with my husband, Thomas, and our rescue dog, Lettie. We love hiking, kayaking, snowshoeing, and camping. We also love our local food scene, so we are often trying new places.
