Searching for help with Tourettes in London

[ChaniS]

Hi

I have a 11 year old daughter with Tourettes. She started when she was six. She went to play therapy when she was 8 which helped; the tics stopped. Unfortunately, they returned about a year after she stopped play therapy. They weren't too bad and they stopped and started, so we ignored them for a couple of years. She recently started Senior School and they have really flared up. She goes from one tic to another every few weeks and each one drives me crazy! At the moment she is sticking her tongue out and winking at the same. 

Now my 6 year old daughter has also started making grimaces, so I am desperate to deal with both of them. Can anyone recommend someone in London, England that I can speak to?

Hi Chanis, I'm sorry you are dealing with tics in your teenager and also have concerns with your little girl. I know someone in London who may be available to connect with you, let me see and get back to you, OK?

Yes! Thank you!
