Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Body-focused repetitive behaviors such as hair pulling (trichotillomania) and skin picking (excoriation disorder) can be distressing and difficult to manage alone. Treatment focuses on understanding triggers, improving awareness of behaviors, and developing practical strategies to reduce urges. Medication management and behavioral techniques can help individuals gain greater control and reduce the impact these behaviors have on daily life.

Colorado Springs is one of the most militarized cities in the United States, home to Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base, Schriever Space Force Base, NORAD, and the United States Air Force Academy — creating exceptional demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, moral injury, and the challenges of military family life. The city also has a large evangelical Christian population and many conservative religious families, making faith-integrated therapy a particularly prominent offering among local practitioners. UCHealth Memorial Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community serving both the military community and the city's growing civilian population. Colorado Springs' proximity to Denver means some residents access additional specialist care in the larger metro, though the local therapy community has grown substantially in recent years.
