Psychiatry & Behavioral Medicine
The University of Texas at Tyler Health Science Center is the only academic medical center in Northeast Texas and serves a region of 23 rural counties. The region is characterized by 1) low income and below state average education level, 2) older average age, 3) high rates of chronic illness, 4) high rates of mental health problems, and 5) underutilization/limited access to mental health resources. The Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine serves the community not only by providing quality, affordable mental health care, but also by training the next generation of providers in culturally competent services.
UT Tyler HSC's Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine is a newer facility, with two accredited training programs, the Psychiatry Residency Program and the Psychology Internship Program, as well as a Psychology Postdoctoral Fellowship and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship. Comprehensive mental health services are provided through an outpatient program staffed by an interdisciplinary team of psychiatrists and psychologists, as well as specialists and nurses.
The Youth Depression and Suicide Research Network is the first behavioral health research program implemented at UT Tyler HSC. Dr. Kiley Schneider serves as the Node Lead, in collaboration with Dr. Jamon Blood, Node Co-Lead, for this Node representing Northeast Texas. Through their involvement in TX-YDSRN, UT Tyler HSC has been able to partner with community mental health providers to better address the ever-changing needs of the youth in their community.
UT Tyler HSC is rapidly growing and officially aligned with The University of Texas at Tyler in December 2020. The Health Science Center at UT Tyler now stronger than ever. Together as one university system, these entities have been unified to serve Northeast Texas and beyond through innovative medical research, medical education and excellent patient care.
