Residents treat individuals, groups, couples, families, and children. The curriculum includes a one-way screen exercise allowing residents to observe a faculty member treating an ongoing patient for one year, a weekly ongoing case psychotherapy seminar, four hours of individual supervision per week, and an outpatient case conference. A didactic seminar covers brief psychotherapy, geriatric psychiatry, forensic psychiatry, statistics and research. PGY-4 residents receive considerable support from the faculty in individually tailoring their eight months of electives to obtain more experience and knowledge in their areas of interest. The continuous case psychotherapy seminar continues through the PGY-4 year from the third year.
Residents are always welcome to all other seminars and conferences in the department.
