Interventions
Habit reversal therapy consists of awareness training, relaxation training, self-monitoring, and competing response training.
Supportive therapy focuses on educating participants about tics: how tics present themselves, the causes of tics, the common conditions that may occur along with tics, and environmental factors that may affect their tics (e.g. family, social, school, stress).
