Summary

The purpose to the current study was to examine the efficacy of a telehealth, group-based, combined and intensive intervention for youth with tic disorders (TDs) and common co-occurring diagnoses. Families seeking treatment for TDs and common co-occurring diagnoses will be randomly assigned to receive treatment immediate (enrollment in the next group) or remain on a 1-month waitlist, and then receive treatment. Outcomes will be assessed across the treatment phase, immediately following treatment (post), as well as 1-month following the end of treatment.
