The program covers all of the theoretical approaches and treatment modalities including psychodynamic individual adult, child and adolescent therapy, as well as group, family, behavioral, psychopharmacological and hospital consultation-liaison psychiatry. We provide a supportive atmosphere for residents, encouraging the development of psychotherapy skills and their practical applications. We also prepare residents for the practice of psychiatry in a managed care environment. Our focus on practical applications of psychotherapy principles includes an extensive demonstration of dynamic psychotherapy during the last two years of training.

Individual clinical supervision remains the cornerstone of the educational program. Clinical faculty work closely with residents on the on the inpatient units. During the outpatient rotations, each resident has two individual supervisors and four or more sessions of group supervision each week. Additional guidance for special projects is arranged as needed.
