Abstract
A case study is presented describing the hypnothera-peutic treatment of a 19-year-old male with Gilles de la Tourette syndrome. From a consideration of the probable psychodynamics of the patient, it seems that the syndrome, a presumed neurological state, is responsive to psychotherapy and hypnosis.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
