#904 Dr. Alexey Tolchinsky on Narrative Fallacy in Clinical Diagnosis

Author: David Van Nuys, Ph.D. June 4, 2024 Duration: 0:00
Alexey Tolchinsky, Psy.D. is a clinical psychologist in private practice in Maryland. He specializes in trauma work and anxiety disorders. He works in psychotherapy with neurodiverse patients, including individuals with Asperger’s disorder, dyslexia, and other conditions. A part of his practice includes working with immigrants struggling with adaptation to living in the US. He integrates cultural competency in his work. He also works with young adults dealing with life transitions, such as adaptation to the first year of college, and mature adults struggling with existential dilemmas and adapting to major life changes, such as divorce or retirement.Dr. Tolchinsky is a Clinical Fellow of the International Neuropscyhoanalysis Association. What this means is a mindful integration of contemporary neuroscience in psychodynamic psychotherapy. While these terms are a mouthful, he rarely uses technical jargon with his patients and speaks in human language. With that, his clinical work is informed by the theoretical models developed by leading psychotherapists and neuropsychologists. Dr. Tolchinsky's peer-reviewed research papers are all targeted to improve the efficacy of psychotherapy with hard-to-treat conditions, including PTSD and OCD.
