Jeremy Ramos, PhD
Integrated Care Family Track (Family Medicine / Geriatrics)
Syracuse University
The Integrated Care Family Track (Family Medicine / Geriatrics) Fellowship offers a strong backing in interdisciplinary communication, clinical care, and collaboration as a psychologist within different healthcare settings. I was particularly drawn to the opportunities to provide integrated primary care in an urban family medicine clinic and explore the ways physicians and medical students share information and interact with patients through the communication coaching program. This fellowship encourages development and utilization of biopsychosocial approaches to patient care and systems level thinking through both didactic and clinical experiences. The medical family therapy post-degree certificate program supports this growth while offering important exposure to how therapists from other disciplines think about interventions and case conceptualization. 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.
Douglas Welsh, PsyD
Integrated Care Family Track (Functional Neurologic Disorders)
Roberts Wesleyan University University
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.
