• Approach

  CBT is described as helping clients understand the influences and life events that make them vulnerable to difficult emotions, and empowering them to make key changes in thinking and behaviour, spot negative cycles and develop positive coping mechanisms. CBIT combines behavioural principles, psychological support, psychoeducation and family support to reduce tic frequency and intensity, and is combined with CBT adapted to the psychological impacts of tics. Autism assessment is multi-component, including a full developmental history, report from school/GP, standardised screening measures, the ADOS-2, consultation with their multidisciplinary team and a comprehensive feedback session.
