For BFRB's, such as hair-pulling and skin-picking, I use Habit Reversal Training (HRT). I have been working with BFRB's for 5 years and have successfully used HRT to help folks recover! I also use CBT and ACT to help with issues that come with BFRB's, such as low self-esteem, shame, and guilt. I value compassion, warmth, and collaboration with the clients who are brave enough to take on this recovery journey.
