The Presenters
Dr Jennifer Loughman
FRACGP MBBS(Hons) BSc DipEd CMgmt
General Practitioner & Entrepreneur
Dr Jennifer Loughman is a GP, having trained in medicine at University of Sydney and Biochemistry at the UNSW. She is a graduate of MMA’s first ever CPAT course, and provided advise in the science and health areas of the Prime Ministers department. She is cofounder of a start-up company in Canberra, bringing a new diagnostic into the health space.
She currently offers personalised, caring GP consultations in Canberra, having spent many years working around the country focused on Indigenous communities, regional communities plus less common gigs such as prisons and quarantine facilities, as well as running her own occupational health clinic.
Her serendipitous exploration into the therapy-assisted psychedelic space (via CPAT training with MMA) has opened up an exciting new field of medicine, as she finds this therapy compelling when compared to existing treatments and disease definitions. She will never look at mental health problems and solutions in the same way again and is looking toward helping general practitioners finding their role in this exciting, healing space.
