Eliza Stucker-Rozovsky
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Hair-pulling, skin-picking, nail-biting, and cheek-chewing often carry a lot of shame, and many people have hidden them for years. These behaviors aren’t a lack of willpower. They usually help regulate something, like stress, boredom, or overwhelm, which is why “just stop” never works. I use Habit Reversal Training alongside a deeper look at what the behavior does for you, so change can actually last.

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.

Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I have extensive training and experience with behavior modification therapy. I start with learning what purpose or function the behaviors serve. Next, we explore if there is a healthier alternative, discover the root cause of the behavior, and/or focus on habit reduction and eventually elimination.
