Tic Talk: Evidenced Based Support for Tourette's 

In this episode of the Psyched to Practice podcast, Dr. Ray Christner and Hailey Frazier engage in an in-depth conversation on the practical application of Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT), an evidence-based treatment for individuals with Tourette’s and tic disorders. Combining clinical expertise with lived experience, Frazier explains the nuances of diagnosis, the wide range of tic presentations, and the importance of functional behavior assessment in guiding treatment.
The discussion highlights key components of CBIT, including psychoeducation, awareness training, and competing response development, while addressing common misconceptions and the need to distinguish tics from other behaviors. Emphasis is placed on collaboration with families and schools to provide contextual support, as well as strategies for managing co-occurring conditions that may complicate treatment.

Course Objectives:

1. Describe the core components of Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) and their application in clinical practice.
2. Explain the role of functional behavior assessment in case formulation for tic disorders.
3. Identify strategies for collaborating with families and schools to support individuals with Tourette syndrome and other tic disorders.
