Abstract

My mentors have always advised me to "figure out what you like to do and try to get paid for it." Several principles have guided me in following this advice: I actively explore new interests; I seek energetic, motivated, productive mentors; and I work to narrow my focus and develop unique skills. My goals are to offer specialized treatment, perform clinical research, and teach. I mostly enjoy working with patients with mood disorders, and I am concerned that my institution offers no service or formal training in electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). I believe it is essential for my institution to provide ECT as a treatment option, to serve as a referral site, and to train residents in ECT.

After assessing three outpatients, I administer nine treatments. I
