Residents meet regularly with psychotherapy supervisors for guidance in their therapy training. Second-year residents have the opportunity for teaching activities, including medical student lectures and evaluations. Rotations and lectures become more intense during the second year, but most rotations allow ample time for self-guided study.

The other half of the day is divided between three months of inpatient psychiatry, two months of VA electives, and seven months of other electives chosen by the residents. The program offers a variety of elective options, and residents also have the option to design an elective tailored to their specific interests.

The fourth year offers significant flexibility, allowing residents to explore diverse areas of interest within psychiatry.
