How Your Gift Helps

Your generosity directly supports the mission of the UTHealth Houston Center for Interventional Psychiatry and has a tangible impact on patients, families, and the future of psychiatric care. Philanthropic contributions help the Center advance care in areas where traditional funding is often limited.

Your gift may support:

• Expanded access to care for individuals with severe and treatment-resistant depression, bipolar disorder, and other complex psychiatric conditions
• Development and enhancement of interventional psychiatry services, including ECT, TMS, ketamine-based therapies, and emerging treatments
• Innovation in clinical programs, such as the Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) Program across outpatient, IOP, PHP, and inpatient levels of care
• Education and training for psychiatry residents, fellows, medical students, and visiting scholars
• Clinical research and trials focused on mood disorders, suicidality, and rapid-acting treatments
• Patient-centered initiatives, including program infrastructure, care coordination, and quality-of-life improvements

Philanthropic support allows the Center to pursue transformative initiatives, respond quickly to patient needs, and accelerate progress toward its long-term vision—advancing care for depression and severe mental illness with the same focus, rigor, and impact that leading cancer centers bring to oncology.
