Angela Jones
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BSW, RSW Registered Social Worker/ Psychotherapist
BFRBs such as hair pulling, skin picking, or nail biting can feel impossible to control and often come with feelings of shame or frustration. I provide evidence-based treatment including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Habit Reversal Training (HRT) and elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). My goal is to help you build awareness, reduce harmful patterns, and develop healthier coping strategies so you can feel more in control and compassionate toward yourself.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you find yourself pulling your hair, picking at your skin, biting your nails, or engaging in other repetitive behaviours that feel hard to stop, you are not alone. Body-focused repetitive behaviours often develop as a way to manage stress, anxiety, boredom, or nervous system overwhelm. They can provide temporary relief but leave you feeling frustrated, ashamed, or out of control afterward.
At Selah Counselling, we approach these behaviours with compassion and curiosity, not judgment. Together, we explore what is driving the behaviour beneath the surface. We examine triggers, emotional patterns, and nervous system regulation while developing practical tools to interrupt the cycle. Our work focuses on increasing awareness, strengthening coping skills, and helping your body feel safer without relying on habits that cause distress. The goal is not simply to stop the behaviour, but to understand it and support lasting change from the inside out.

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.

Rikki-Lee Epp
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.

Ashleigh Bell
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
Hair pulling, skin picking, or nail-biting can feel automatic and embarrassing. I offer a non-judgmental space to understand the emotional and sensory triggers behind these behaviours and introduce practical strategies to reduce harm, increase awareness, and respond to urges in gentler ways.
