For Psychiatry Fellowships, see FREIDA Training statistics.

Look for a (P) after the name of the subspecialty/fellowship.

I have seen many websites with psych salaries...most range between 130k-170k. Is there any money in psych?

Given that most of my patients are fortunate to have a job (PERIOD) and basic housing, I feel damn lucky to be earning in that range.

Just how much money are you looking for?

My friend's dad is a Psychiatrist.
They live in a 10,000 square foot house on a golf course, have 6 rides, and own over 3 million bucks of real estate.

Just an example.

I know one psychiatrist in the Houston area making seven figures owning and running several clinics. Another in the Boston area who just signed a contract in excess of $250,000 straight out of Child fellowship working basically 9-5/5 days a week. Seeing as these are the only two practicing shrinks I know, 2 for 2 making decent cash is not bad.

Keep believing the hype that Psych doesn't pay. More opportunities for those of us in the field.

It keeps the money chasers out of a speciality that requires people skills (ref: surgical specialities) !

i hear there is a lot of $$ in child psych, esp if you go the private route. that's just what i hear.

Yeah but I also heard Child Psych is one of the most depressing fields to be in...
and that burnout is common...
