About Dr. Joshua Haugh, DO
Dr. Joshua Haugh, DO
Joshua Haugh, DO is a fully licensed physician who is board-certified in General Psychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine (Consult-Liaison Psychiatry) by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. His keen interest in the overlap between psychiatry and medicine, mind-body connection, structures his approach.
Dr. Haugh earned an undergraduate degree in psychology at the College of the Holy Cross and completed pre-med coursework at Harvard Extension School. He pursued postgraduate studies in the social sciences at The University of Chicago before graduating from the University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine.
His keen interest in the overlap between psychiatry and medicine, mind-body connection, structures his approach.
After graduating from medical school, Dr. Haugh undertook an osteopathic traditional rotating internship at the Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center and a general psychiatry residency at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, where he was the chief resident in psychosomatic medicine during his final year. As a resident, Dr. Haugh trained in hypnosis through the American Society for Clinical Hypnosis. He pursued further psychotherapy training via the postgraduate fellowship program at the Massachusetts Institute for Psychoanalysis and the psychoanalytic psychotherapy fellowship at the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute (BPSI).
Dr. Haugh continued to hone a distinct approach after his psychiatry residency. He completed a one-year fellowship in osteopathic neuromusculoskeletal medicine at Berkshire Medical Center and a fellowship in psychosomatic medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine.
Dr. Haugh’s additional experience includes training in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy at UMass Memorial Center for Mindfulness and advanced training in mentalization-based treatment at the Borderline Personality Disorder Training Institute at McLean Hospital. He is involved with the New England Society for Clinical Hypnosis. He also continues psychoanalytic psychotherapy training through BPSI’s Advanced Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Training program. He is currently a candidate in the Institute for Functional Medicine Certification Program.
Committed to the ideal of the scholar-physician, Dr. Haugh taught courses in the psychology departments at College of the Holy Cross and Clark University. He has been a member of the psychiatry faculty at the Berkshire Medical Center and University of Massachusetts Medical School. Along with teaching and supervising medical students, residents, rotating fellows, and allied health profession students across disciplines, Dr. Haugh’s courses have included teaching psychiatry residents how to work with dreams in psychotherapy. He remains actively involved in multiple professional organizations for ongoing case consultation and clinical supervision.
Alongside his psychiatry practice, Dr. Haugh practices osteopathic manual medicine (OMM) at Synchrony Osteopathic Medicine. While both practices explore the link between mind and body, and are co-located, they are entirely separate. Due to the different nature of hands-on osteopathic care and integrative psychodynamic psychotherapy, psychiatry patients are not treated in my osteopathic practice (and vice-versa).
