Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
I work with Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (like hair pulling or skin picking) by exploring the emotional and relational roots of these symptoms. Through a psychodynamic lens, we look at how these behaviors may unconsciously serve to manage overwhelming feelings, self-criticism, or unresolved inner conflict. Our work supports deeper self-understanding, emotional regulation, and gentler ways of relating to the self.

Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
I approach body-focused repetitive behaviors—such as skin picking, hair pulling, or nail biting—as meaningful responses, often serving as ways the body regulates tension or unmet emotional needs. Together, we explore what these behaviors are expressing and the patterns behind them. Through increased awareness and a more compassionate relationship with oneself, change can emerge in a way that is both sustainable and respectful.

Body focused repetitive behaviours, such as skin picking, hair pulling, or other repetitive habits, can bring shame, frustration, and a sense of being out of control. Therapy can help you understand triggers, emotions, urges, and patterns without judgment. Together, we can build awareness, coping strategies, and more compassionate responses to difficult moments.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If you pick, pull, bite, or repeat body-focused habits that feel soothing in the moment but distressing afterward, you’re not broken—your system is self-regulating. We’ll identify triggers, strengthen alternative regulation strategies, and reduce shame so you can interrupt the cycle with more choice. Progress is possible, and it doesn’t require willpower alone.
