In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lori Rockmore and Dr. Daniela Colognori, two clinical psychologists with extensive experience treating individuals with Tourette syndrome (TS) and related conditions. Both have a rich history of working at the Rutgers TS Clinic, where they gained invaluable insights into providing holistic, family-focused care. Throughout our conversation, we discuss their personal journeys into the field, how their practice has evolved, and the incredible strengths they see in their patients.
We discuss what it means to offer holistic treatment, going beyond the tics themselves to address broader issues like school performance, family dynamics, and other comorbid conditions such as OCD and anxiety. Dr. Rockmore and Dr. Colognori share stories of resilience, the importance of seeing the whole person, and how families play a crucial role in supporting individuals with TS.
