Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Living with BFRBs such as hair pulling, skin picking, or nail biting can feel exhausting and isolating. These behaviors are often misunderstood, yet they are common ways of coping with stress, anxiety, or sensory needs. I provide a compassionate, judgment-free space to explore the roots of these behaviors while also developing practical tools to reduce urges, increase awareness, and build healthier coping strategies. Together, we’ll focus on breaking cycles of shame, strengthening self-acceptance, and creating supportive routines so that you can feel more in control and at peace in your daily life.

I use CBT and DBT to support clients dealing with body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) like hair pulling or skin picking. Therapy focuses on understanding triggers, building awareness of urges, and developing practical strategies to interrupt the behavior while addressing underlying emotions. DBT skills—such as distress tolerance and emotional regulation—are used alongside CBT techniques to reduce compulsive urges and strengthen healthier coping. The approach is structured, compassionate, and tailored to help you regain control and confidence.
