Elizabeth Harris
Dr. Elizabeth Harris brings two decades of experience in general practice, augmented by additional qualifications in complementary health and functional medicine. Her career has been marked by a profound commitment to emergency medicine and rural healthcare, with stints in small communities across New Zealand and the Australian Outback. Over the last decade, she has immersed herself in the emerging field of brainwave biofeedback, leveraging cutting-edge medical EEG recording technology to conduct brain mapping and train brain waves. This innovative approach targets conditions such as ADHD, depression, anxiety, and traumatic brain injury. In 2017, Dr. Harris achieved the distinction of becoming the first New Zealand Board Certified Neurotherapist. More recently, she inaugurated the country's inaugural private clinic offering LORETA neurotherapy. Driven by a keen interest in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Fibromyalgia, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and chronic unexplained illnesses, she continues to push the boundaries of neurological care.
Presenting: “The functional medicine you need to know to both improve your patient's outcomes and know where to look when Neurotherapy isn't working.”
This talk will empower you with the tools you need to find the functional medicine resources for the patient in front of you on a daily basis. First, we will go over a primer/ framework of functional medicine so that you will have a better understanding of the map and where to look. And then we will cover the people/ programs in functional medicine that are massively shifting the needle that you're going to love to hear about! You will walk away from this talk with a "if this, then that" guide to connect your patient with the functional medicine solutions that will augment your work together and solutions where their progress is stuck.
Education Level: INTERMEDIATE
Content builds upon the learner's foundational knowledge, familiarity with the literature and/or experience in a content area. Programming at this level includes more depth than at a beginning level program. It could also serve as a refresher course for individuals who have a background in a content area and are interested in learning more contemporary applications. The primary goal of this particular program is to broaden the clinical, consultative, and research knowledge bases of attendees and was deemed intermediate, by the definition above. For those psychologists using the modality of biofeedback and interested in efficacy, science, and latest clinical applications. This conference presents research relevant to psychological practice, education, and science; (2) it is our intention to host an offering to help psychologists to keep up with the most current scientific evidence regarding assessment, intervention, and education; and (3) we believe that this program would allow psychologists to increase competencies to improve services to patients. This conference is IN NO WAY a substitute for the basic academic education and training needed for entry into the field of psychology.
