When patients ask, “What disorder do I really ‘have’?” the honest answer is usually more interesting and messier than a single label. I wrote for the @nytimes on what I wish people understood about diagnoses and the nature of mental health problems.

@jordanticus Any good resources on psychodynamic therapy for OCD. I practice largely through psychodynamic model but typically do ERP with OCD patients.
@stimimi I think neurodiversity just comes from reframing medical model language "neurodevelopmental disorder". Which is also poorly named due to being based on theoretical rather than diagnostic criteria for what it is labelling. Neurodiversity could be more called cognitive diversity.

As discussions turn towards Government formation, there are a number of key areas affecting children that should be included in the new Programme for Government. Critically, the next Government must include a strong and well-resourced Department of Children.
Dr Niall Muldoon, @OCO_ireland, will be joining us on Friday 15 November as a keynote speaker at #PSIConf24 to discuss the progress of children’s rights and what still needs to be done.
We’re thrilled to have Niall join us!

Looking for a version of the MoCA that can be administered over the phone and was reminded of the Impossible MoCA, which is always fun to give to anxious colleagues. "Just a standard test I give to all my patients".
