Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Skin picking, hair pulling and nail biting habits (BFRB's, Body focused repetitive behaviors) are notoriously hard to stop. And they can cause real damage, embarrassment and isolation. If you have had failed attempts to stop these habits, it is not your fault. Working with an experienced therapist using evidence based treatments gives you a big advantage and can lead you to quick and successful long term management. I combine insightful, caring depth work with scientifically validated evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from harmful habits and helping you to reclaim the balanced, happy life you deserve.

I support clients struggling with trichotillomania, skin picking, and other BFRBs (body-focused repetitive behaviors).

Santa Ana is one of the most densely populated cities in the United States and has an overwhelmingly Latino population — predominantly Mexican American, with significant Central American communities — making Spanish-speaking and bicultural therapists not a specialty but a baseline requirement for meaningful access to care. The city's families navigate a complex mix of immigration stress, economic precarity, and the particular challenges of raising children across cultures, and therapists fluent in both language and cultural context serve an essential community function. CHOC Children's and the broader Orange County healthcare system provide institutional mental health resources, though access can be limited by insurance and immigration-related barriers. Telehealth has meaningfully expanded therapy access for Santa Ana residents who prefer culturally matched care over what is available locally.
