The recent Ft. Hood tragedy was startling in a number of ways, not least of which was that the gunman was a mental health professional at the the highest level.  Psychiatry is one of the most education-intensive of medical specialties.  It made me think back to the HBO series "The Sopranos", and Dr. Melfi, the psychiatrist who treated Tony Soprano and who also periodically underwent therapy herself.

Does anyone know if psychiatrists are required to undergo therapy themselves at any point before or after they are licensed to practice on their own?  It was the impression I carried with me from the show, but I may have inferred something that wasn't there.  And a variety of differently worded google searches on the question have come up empty.

Nowhere in the extensive reporting on the Ft. Hood shooter have I seen any mention of him having undergone any therapy personally, which would obviously be of significant importance to investigators if he had.  His survival and the doctor-patient privilege notwithstanding.
