Elizabeth Stackhouse, M.D.

Elizabeth Stackhouse grew up in Quakertown, Pennsylvania. She earned her bachelor's degree in Biochemistry at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and it was there that her love for neuroscience began.

Psychosocial Fellow

Douglas Welsh, Psy.D. 

I am excited to join the Integrated Care Family Track, with an emphasis in functional neurology. I am particularly drawn to the opportunities to provide specialized treatment for individuals with Functional Neurological disorders and other stress-sensitive disorders in inpatient and outpatient settings. Due to the misconceptions associated with these diagnoses, I look forward to empowering patients to live meaningful lives while managing challenges in their daily lives. In addition, the specialized training focused on improving the communication of medical residents provides an invaluable experience for engaging in systems-level interventions. The medical family therapy post-degree certificate program supports this growth while offering helpful perspectives to helping families with medical conditions interact with the medical system collaboratively. I am confident the ICF fellowship will prepare me for a career as an educator, clinician, researcher, and psychologist working within and across integrated healthcare systems.
