Third year residents are assigned to a variety of outpatient clinics in order to obtain a broad clinical experience, with equal emphasis on the evaluation of new patients and longitudinal care.  We ensure that residents will carry a caseload of long-term psychotherapy patients, with dedicated weekly psychotherapy supervision with a faculty member.

All PGY3 residents rotate through the "Clinical Supervised Visit (CSV) clinic" where residents are observed interviewing patients and given formative feedback by co-residents, students and faculty in order to polish their interview skills. Residents also have the opportunity to spend ½ day per week for several months experiencing various subspecialties and other practice settings, including memory disorder clinic, substance use disorders clinic, inpatient forensics, clinical trials, and TMS.  Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, USF

The final year of training is designed to allow residents to consolidate their diagnostic, therapeutic and administrative skills and is largely comprised of elective blocks. Residents continue a half-day continuity clinic through the University Psychiatry Center.

A two-month rotation in neurotherapies offers extensive training in the evaluation of patients for and the use of electroconvulsive therapy, as well as additional opportunities in transcranial magnetic stimulation. Some fourth year residents interested in education may have an opportunity to become involved in undergraduate medical education.

All PGY-4 residents will have a rotation in which they function as "Junior Attendings" on inpatient and consultative services. Opportunities for further exploration of specialty interests and research are available.
