Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Repetitive picking, restricting, exercising, or injurious behaviors require specialized care. I use a body-positive approach to treat these and pay special attention to the underlying causes contributing to symptomatic behaviors.

Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
Body-focused repetitive behaviors — hair pulling, skin picking, nail biting — are driven by a nervous system seeking self-regulation through sensation. The brain reaches for these behaviors the way it reaches for any compulsion: to manage arousal, anxiety, or emotional discomfort it cannot otherwise process.
Neurofeedback addresses the underlying dysregulation directly, training the brain to self-soothe without the behavior — reducing the neurological urge before it becomes an action.

Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Body-focused repetitive behaviors, such as hair pulling, skin picking, or nail biting, can feel difficult to control and may lead to shame, frustration, or isolation. These behaviors are not personal failures; they are often connected to stress, emotional discomfort, sensory needs, or learned patterns of relief.
I help clients identify triggers, increase awareness of urges, develop healthier competing responses, and strengthen emotional regulation. Through compassionate, nonjudgmental care, we work to reduce shame, improve self-control, and create practical strategies that support lasting change.

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.

Arpi Isayan, EMDR Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support clients struggling with trichotillomania, skin picking, and other BFRBs (body-focused repetitive behaviors). These patterns often develop in response to anxiety, trauma, or emotional stress. Using EMDR and evidence-based strategies, I help clients better understand their urges, reduce harmful behaviors, and build greater self-awareness and compassion.
