Dr Douglas began general practice 30 years ago, with particular interests in indigenous health, women’s health, sexual health, and early life care. She first qualified as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant in 1994, and completed her PhD in Creative Writing and Women’s Studies in 2012. She is trained in the delivery of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. From 2005, in various collaborations, Dr Douglas has developed and published the evidence-base to the innovative Possums programs (also known as Neuroprotective Developmental Care). In 2011, Dr Douglas opened the first pilot Possums Clinic at UQ Health Care, Annerley, and in 2013 founded Possums for Mothers and Babies Ltd, a charitable organisation (ACN 162 221 892) which promotes community-based Neuroprotective Developmental Care (‘the Possums programs’), trading as Possums Education. Dr Douglas established a second Possums Clinic at Highgate Hill in April 2015, resigning there as Medical Director in March 2018. Dr Douglas is an Adjunct Associate Professor, Maternity Newborn & Families Research Centre MHIQ, Griffith University, and a Senior Lecturer, Discipline of General Practice, The University of Queensland.
