Psychiatry residency can be a profoundly meaningful and rewarding experience but also one that poses unique challenges. This guide deftly combines the wisdom of seasoned leaders in psychiatry residency and fellowship with the perspectives of current residents-in-training to deliver a holistic approach for making the most of the training years.
Issues of identity, clinical practice, skill-building, career development, and balancing work and a personal life all are addressed in chapters that apply the information to real-life scenarios and encourage self-awareness and professional identity development.
With key points, specific challenges and strategies, and subsequent reference and extensive recommended resources that spur further exploration, this handbook is designed to be a reference that readers, whether medical students, psychiatry residents, fellows, or psychiatric educators can return to time and again.
