果冻影院 Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship
The Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship at the 果冻影院 Affiliated Hospitals prepares competent physicians to be excellent child and adolescent psychiatrists for their work with children and families across the lifespan.
This ACGME-accredited program takes advantage of a rich community of resources to provide a broad training experience with patients of various cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.
Fellows are immersed in multiple systems of care including public, private, medical, correctional, and behavioral health. Longitudinal experiences dedicated separately to therapy and medication management span the two years. The range and breadth of our patient-centered approach ensures fellows are well prepared to effectively treat and advocate for children and families as well as the profession.
Didactics and seminars enhance clinical experiences by emphasizing the biological, psychological, and sociocultural components that influence normal development.
Taught by faculty with diverse backgrounds and educational experiences, the curriculum covers the many topics critical to child and family work. Faculty leadership and involvement at both the regional and national level enhances both didactic and clinical experiences and provides fellows opportunities for mentorship and career guidance.
