Trichotillomania Support — International Directory

Trichotillomania — compulsive hair pulling — is a recognised body-focused repetitive behaviour (BFRB) that affects people everywhere in the world, yet finding a professional who has genuinely treated it can be hard wherever you live. It isn't a lack of willpower and it isn't something you should be expected to simply stop: it responds best to specific, structured approaches such as habit reversal training (HRT), the Comprehensive Behavioural (ComB) model, CBT and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT).
