This virtual mini-residency is designed to equip VA and DOD mental health providers with clinical knowledge and skills to deliver informed care to women Veterans and Service members. Topics to be addressed in these interactive sessions include:

  • Reproductive mental/behavioral health,
  • Eating disorders and disordered eating,
  • Mental/behavioral health across the lifespan,
  • Lifestyle medicine, 
  • Complex trauma, and
  • Much, much more.

Interested participants are required to attend the mini-residency in its entirety. Continuing education credits will be provided at no cost to attending participants. We anticipate that approximately 16 CEUs will be provided; details to follow. Attendees are responsible for blocking their clinical schedule as needed to attend the full conference. 

Program description and highlights:

The faculty includes nationally recognized subject matter experts who will share their knowledge on unique aspects of women’s mental/behavioral health, including influences of reproductive cycle stages.

As DOD and VA clinicians are coming together for this training, this is a unique opportunity for participants to understand the continuum of experiences of women Veterans and Service members and gain knowledge to strengthen continuity of care across systems.

Networking opportunities will be available within and between the VA and DOD.

Who: VA and DOD psychiatrists, physician assistants, advanced practice nurses, psychologists, social workers and counselors providing mental/behavioral health care to women Veterans and Service members.

Where: Online (virtual)

At this time, training will not be recorded and will only be available during the live virtual session.
