Descrição do Produto

This Parent Workbook addresses the treatment of Tourette syndrome (TS) in children and adults. The goal of this 11-session program is to teach the patient effective tic management skills rather than to cure the tic disorder. Children, alongside parents, will be taught how to become aware of tics, how to substitute other behaviors to manage tics when they start to appear, and how to avoid factors that may make tics worse, as well as relaxation techniques to reduce stress and relapse prevention strategies. The workbook provides user-friendly forms for tracking symptoms and monitoring tic severity.Now into its second edition, this well-established treatment protocol is recognized as a first-line treatment for tics in individuals across the world and outlines the protocol for the Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT). Written by the treatment developers, this book provides not only the technical knowledge of how the treatment can be effectively implemented, but also includes the collected wisdom from nearly 20 years of treating patients with the protocol. This updated protocol is a must have for anyone trying to manage tic disorder.Also available is an updated and revised corresponding therapist guide, as well as the original workbook designed specifically for adolescent and adult clients.
