Dr. Charles R. Freeman, San Diego psychologist specializing in insomnia, trauma, chronic pain and behavioral medicine
Our Services
Seeing Dr. Charles Freeman was honestly one of the best health decisions I’ve made. When I first started working with him, I was dealing with a massive amount of work stress, lingering past trauma, and most importantly, terrible sleep that was affecting everything.
Over a good stretch of time, Dr. Freeman helped me work through it all. He didn't just give me a quick fix. We dug deeply into sleep hygiene, sleep psychology, CBT-I, and cognitive restructuring together. Because of his help, I’ve been able to turn things around, and I've learned how to approach my life with much more confidence and balance.
Dr. Freeman is just a genuinely wonderful, caring person. His expertise is incredible, but his bedside manner and kindness are what really set him apart. If you're struggling with sleep or feeling overwhelmed by life, I can't recommend him enough!

Patient Experiences
I saw Dr. Freeman about 20 times over an 18 month time period. I had extreme sleep issues. He taught me tools to keep my insomnia under control as well as anxiety. His listening skills are over the top, in my opinion. He is so non-judgmental, never seems to be thrown by any problem I may have. I no longer consider myself an insomniac. If I have a few bad nights, I just move on. As he would say, it is what it is, nothing more than a bad night. I would recommend Dr. Freeman to anyone needing mental health care in his fields of expertise.
Dr. Freeman has been such a wonderful thing for me.
I had sleep issues where I was only sleeping 4 hours a night and he helped me get to the point that I can now sleep at least 7 hours a night. Makes a huge difference when getting up to go to work. I have been seeing him for 2 + years and I feel so much better now than I did when I started with him. No more crying – feeling bad. I am now more positive and happier.”
He is so worth seeing!!!
