“…5 Because of financial constraints, psychiatric trainees on Paraguay's two residence programmes face obstacles, such as limited training tools and time for psychotherapy supervision. 8 Resource limitation has resulted in community research being neglected in favour of urban-based hospital research. However, research exchange programmes have begun to fill this gap.…”

Paraguay is a landlocked country in South America. It is a democratic low-middle-income nation, and the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare is responsible for its healthcare system. Mental health services receive just 1–2% of healthcare budgets, and there are only 1.6 psychiatrists per 100 000 inhabitants. There are insufficient resources to adequately assess and treat mental disorders in high-risk populations such as children, adolescents and prisoners. Despite several improvements to mental health policies within the past two decades, the nation still lacks a Mental Health Act and specific policies required to optimise the mental health of the population.

“…Table 3 presents the evaluations of the residents and their instructors in their institution. 15,16 The gold standard in psychotherapy training involves clinical practice under supervision, complementing theoretical education with one-on-one relationships. 1 In addition to treating patients, psychiatrists' psychotherapy skills can be invaluable in providing supportive and empathetic care to patient relatives, offering corrective experiences, and understanding the theories underlying individual, group, and family psychotherapies for mental disorders.…”

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the psychotherapy training experiences of psychiatry residents through a questionnaire, addressing the knowledge gap on standards and practices during psychiatry residency training in Türkiye. . Materials and Methods: The study was conducted via WhatsApp and e-mail groups specific to psychiatry residents in Türkiye. Results: In our study, 80.5% of psychiatry residents received psychotherapy training during their residency, whereas, especially in those who have been in residence for four years or more, 97% received theoretical training, and 68% received supervision training. Moreover, a substantial portion (90.3%) of residents expressed plans to pursue psychotherapy training after graduation. Of those who received training, 63.7% obtained it from their educational institution, while 89.0% obtained it from other centres. Furthermore, 47.8% of the psychotherapy training was provided by in-house faculty members. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy was the most preferred type of psychotherapy among the residents. The most commonly reported barrier to accessing psychotherapy training was its high cost.. Conclusion: The study concluded that most psychiatry residents in Türkiye received psychotherapy training. Enhancing psychotherapy training in psychiatry residency, overcoming barriers, and improving supervision are critical issues to be addressed
