Psychotherapy
Your doctor might also recommend psychotherapy or behavioral therapy to deal with some symptoms of Tourette’s syndrome. This often involves 1-on-1 counseling with a professional, licensed mental health therapist. Behavioral therapy would include many techniques, such as awareness training, cognitive behavioral intervention, and competing for response training. This form of therapy could also help alleviate many signs of other associated conditions such as anxiety, depression, OCD, or ADHD. The therapist can use one of the following techniques during a psychotherapy session: deep breathing patterns, guided meditation, relaxation techniques, as well as hypnosis. In most cases, you will get counseling with some other people who are at the same age and conditions. [14]
