The Medical College of Georgia / Charlie Norwood Veteran Affairs Medical Center Psychology Residency Program

The Medical College of Georgia (MCG) and the Charlie Norwood Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) formed a Psychology Residency Program in 1982 that has been fully accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA) since 1983. The MCG-VAMC residency combines the full resources of both institutions to create a training program with exceptional breath and depth that is focused on clinical psychology in interdisciplinary health care settings.

Integral to all rotations and track experiences are joint educational and clinical service activities with interdisciplinary health care professionals that may include primary care physicians, psychiatrists and other physician specialists, nurse practitioners, social workers, and other allied health professionals.

Through our Residency training, Residents gain the knowledge and confidence to treat a broad range of psychopathology, to function effectively within interdisciplinary clinical teams in medical settings, and be a valued consultant to physicians in various specialties. Residents also have access to a wide range of specialty training options that allow Residents to individualize their training experience.

The program begins in early July and carries an annual stipend of $22,898 + benefits. We currently fund six Residents.
