Philosophy is a humanities major and requires what ever basic maths you need to get your BA. However if your university has a logic-dominated curriculum, you will basically be doing a type of maths as your main course work in Philosophy.
Psychiatry is a medical specialty that you would choose in medical school. Anyone studying pre-med in college has to do lots of complex maths, including calculus and advanced statistical analysis.

Philosophy rarely expects high level maths. Usually just the basics (which everyone should know).
Psychology definitly requires math for statistics. Difficult level of math for anyone, but especially someone who is trying to avoid math.
Psychiatry is a medical field, not a regular major field of study. To study psychiatry, you must be in medical school. And that requires rather a lot of math.
Want to avoid maths, study communication or literature. Philosophy also generally requires foreign languages.

One area of philosophy that closely resembles math is Logic. These are good subjects to study. They will teach you how to think, write, and speak. These skills are as important in your professional life as your personal life. If you worried about the math, don't be. There is not enough of it to make any significant difference.

You need to know the basics of mathematics. Since Interpolation is required for certain cases, rather analytical ability is the basic requisite.*

in college you'll have to take statistics, algebra and maybe calculus (I took it but can't remember if it was before or after I switched to psych.. and don't remember if it was required for psych) but after that unless you go into research and have to use statistics you won't be doing much math at all.
