Program description

Program Description: Amid the cultural and clinical complexity of a West Texas border community, TTH EP offers extensive training in correctional psychiatry and forensic evaluations for a diverse population, including juveniles. Fellows collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams and gain experience balancing evaluations and clinical care with teaching and research. Fellows work with the state hospital, local mental health authority, correctional facilities, and multiple government agencies. They attend statewide expert-led didactics via participation in the Texas Forensic Psychiatry Fellowship Collaborative. The program is centered in El Paso, TX with training sites located within a 25-minute drive from our office location.
