My 11 year son has tics that come and go (sometimes they disappear for months) but over the last month or two they have become more pronounced(clicks, sqeaks, clearing the throat). Although still pretty mild, his friends and kids at school are starting to notice when he's having a bad day. Our counseling center recommended that he be medically checked out. Our peditrician just refered us to a neurolist.

We've been debating whether we should start with a neurolist vs. a pyschologist. We'd appreciate words from the wise.
