Psychiatry Training Office
Welcome from the Psychiatry Training Office
Thank you for your interest in our training programs. Whether you are completing medical school and preparing for residency or finishing residency and pursuing a fellowship in psychiatry, this is an exciting and meaningful stage in your journey. For those interested in joining our department and deepening their work in psychiatry, we share in your passion, curiosity, and drive to make a difference. As new discoveries and innovations continue to shape the field of psychiatry, we believe future psychiatrists must bring together deep compassion and empathy with a commitment to cutting-edge science.
Working with patients and families is an enriching and rewarding experience. Thanks to our faculty and training sites, we deliver a wide range of training experiences, didactics, research and mentoring opportunities so our trainees can develop the career paths that are best suited for them. We offer education and experience in various forms of individual psychotherapy, advanced psychopharmacology, neurotherapies and interventional treatments (ECT, TMS, esketamine) and we emphasize a collaborative, trauma informed and systems-based approach to care.
Over the years, our trainees have an established track record of attaining national awards based on their leadership and accomplishments during training. General psychiatry residents get early and frequent exposure to many faculty members with subspecialty training and many residents decide to pursue fellowship training. Our department offers fellowships in Addiction Psychiatry, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, Forensic Psychiatry and Geriatric Psychiatry. Within USF, we also have opportunities for psychiatric trainees to pursue fellowships in sleep medicine, pain medicine or palliative care. Many of our graduates develop a deep sense of connection and commitment to our community and, after completing their training, go on to rewarding careers in research, education, and the delivery of much-needed psychiatric services throughout the Tampa Bay area.
Please explore our website so you can learn more about our department, our training programs and our training sites. Instructions on how to apply for a position can also be found. We look forward to hearing from you.
