Our program represents a unique opportunity for residents to become experts in Psychiatry while working in a variety of community, collaborative and academic settings. Our enthusiastic faculty members have years of experience working in diverse settings, which will give residents exposure to a wide range of psychiatric practice. It also allows students to gain exposure to community settings in both rural and urban locations where you can train to lead inter professional teams. Our program is structured to provide a wide variety of exposure to the different fields of Psychiatry within the first two years of training. In addition, our program offers clinical training in collaborative psychiatric care within primary care and, depending on interest, specialty clinics. These types of collaborative clinics are rapidly expanding throughout health systems to increase access to quality psychiatric care, and we provide residents the ability to train in these models as they grow in importance. Our residents will also gain wide training in medication assisted treatment for addictions integrated with robust outpatient psychotherapy and an IOP program with multiple elective options. We have a wide range of psychotherapists practicing different therapeutic modalities providing residents with clinical supervision in a wide variety of both traditional therapy and newly developed interventions. We are unique because of our ability to train residents in community models of psychiatric practice while also providing full access to research opportunities, faculty and educational resources at Indiana University School of Medicine, which has campuses all over the state including Evansville, Indiana. We provide ample opportunities to participate in local and national conferences and encourage resident original research. As a new program, we offer residents a once-in-a-lifetime ability to help design electives and make an impact in a program that can truly meet their needs and interests. It is our goal for residents to feel a sense of expertise and ability in our field regardless of practice setting after graduation. I am delighted in your interest in our program and look forward to discussing your goals for residency.
