Learn more about our psychiatric and behavioral health services, treatments and specialties.
The Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at UC Davis is a collaborative team of more than 540 faculty, staff, residents, fellows, trainees and volunteers.
Our major areas of commitment are training and education in psychiatry and psychology; clinical and basic neuroscience research in areas such as autism, ADHD, dementia and aging; and the provision of mental health services to a diverse socioeconomic population throughout the greater Sacramento area.
We are committed to providing a more just, equitable, diverse, and inclusive environment for our faculty, staff, trainees, students, and, most importantly, the patients we serve. Efforts include a commitment to racial justice through health equity research, evaluation of our recruitment and retention strategies and integrated cultural psychiatry training.
Our location in the capitol affords us the opportunity to be involved in providing mental health services for programs at the county and state levels as well as in the local Sacramento community. These programs serve an economically and ethnically diverse patient population, including underserved and homeless patient populations.
