Treatment for Tic Disorders
Tics are sudden twitches, movements, or sounds that a person repeatedly does. People with tics cannot simply stop their bodies from doing these things. We understand that something small to others may feel huge to you. At P.S. Psychiatry, we’re here to help address your concerns and help you address what is most important to you.


Signs & Symptoms of Tic Disorders
Whether you experience Tourette Syndrome, Motor Tics, or Vocal Tics, we understand that something that seems small can feel really big. Your P.S. Psychiatrist will work with you to understand your experiences and what impacts you the most. To help with the initial conversation, below is a list of common signs and symptoms you may experience that can bring up to our staff.

Repetitive and Involuntary: Your tic is repetitive and involuntary. You feel like you have little or no control over when they occur or for how long.

Increases in Stress or Excitement: Your symptoms get worse when you’re experiencing increased stress or excitement.

Repeating Words or Sounds: Repeating or blurting out random words or sounds at inappropriate times without the intention to do so. It may also appear like a sharp exhale.

Urges or Pressure: You may feel a sudden urge or pressure before a tic happens and experience relief when the tic is performed.
