Tourette syndrome is a neuropsychological disorder that can significantly affect the individual and his/herfamily. Yet many mental health professionals have not been educated or trained to work effectively with this population.  This presentation provided a clinical perspective of Tourette syndrome and comorbid conditions, in hopes of increasing attendees’ knowledge of TS, and their ability to identify vocal and motor tics. The presenter provided both personal and professional knowledge to foster participants’ understanding of this neurobiological disorder.
