Psychologist, PhD
Body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) are repetitive self-grooming actions such as hair pulling, skin picking, nail biting, or scraping, which can lead to physical harm. These behaviors can feel difficult to control and are often driven—consciously or unconsciously—by urges, tension, boredom, emotional distress, or sensory discomfort, sometimes providing temporary relief or satisfaction. BFRBs are not merely “bad habits”; they are recognized mental health conditions that can cause significant emotional distress, interfere with daily life, and impact well-being.

Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Struggles with coping with body-focused repetitive behaviors can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with these behaviors and get more of what you want from life. You can understand what you can and can't control, and if any of your own behaviors and conflicts are contributing to your unhappiness. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Buffalo's post-industrial economy and harsh winters contribute to elevated rates of depression and seasonal mood challenges, and therapists here are experienced in working with these climate-related patterns. The city has a strong community identity and a sizable working-class population, with therapists frequently addressing grief, economic stress, relationship issues, and intergenerational family dynamics. The University at Buffalo and Erie County Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, while private practices serve those seeking longer-term therapeutic relationships. Buffalo's proximity to Canada and its large Rust Belt peer cities also shapes a regional resilience that many therapists draw on in their work.
