Overcoming Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors: A Comprehensive Behavioral Treatment For Hair Pulling And Skin Picking
Select Format
Book Overview
The definitive guide for those who pick or pull.
--Reid Wilson, PhD, author Stopping the Noise in Your Head
A comprehensive treatment plan grounded in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you overcome body-focused repetitive behaviors for good
If you have body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRB) such as hair pulling (trichotillomania) or skin picking (dermatillomania), you may feel embarrassed about seeking help. But there are proven-effective strategies you can use to overcome these behaviors and improve your overall quality of life--this book will show you how.
In this evidence-based resource, three renowned experts and clinicians offer powerful CBT skills to help you move past BFRB. You'll learn why you engage in these behaviors, and how to identify your own sensory triggers--places, things, or experiences that cause your behavior to become worse. Finally, you'll learn strategies to use when faced with these triggers, and develop your own customized plan of action for moving beyond BFRB for good.
With time, practice, and solid skills for managing stress, anxiety, urges, and other triggers, this book will help you break free from BFRB and feel more in control of your life.

Great manual for BFRBs
Derived From Web , Sep 8, 2021
As a psychiatrist who specializes in skin pulling and hair grabbing, I was excited to find a manual that was patient friendly and not too long. The important information in the back of the book offers a great summary of all the appendix points. This is a great resource for patients and health care providers alike.

Incredibly helpful
Derived From Web , Jan 15, 2020
People who suffer from skin picking and other BFRBs have so few excellent resources available to them. It takes readers on a journey to discover what triggers them and how to target specific interventions to achieve much-needed relief. Each chapter builds on the next to offer a comprehensive action plan that is comprehensible and doable. BFRBs are not easily managed without a thoughtful approach, and I highly recommend this approach. It will leave the readers feeling understood and in excellent hands. The authors are successful in their own right. Together, they offer a single voice that exudes competence, compassion and a skillful touch.

Undercover habits
Derived From Web , Jan 2, 2020
At one time or another, several members have succumbed to these self-harming habits. As described in this book, there is no simple fix. Each person needs to examine what triggers their own sessions of hair pulling or skin picking. The book offers a plan of action along with suggestions for use in various scenarios. There are also references for supporting groups and other resources.
