Stop hair pulling, trichotillomania, pulling hair out and hair plucking

Do you suffer from Compulsive Hair Pulling? Have you ever found yourself continually plucking at your hair or eyebrows, to the point where there is a noticeable bald spot? It’s time to make a change – with our help.

Compulsive hair pulling or hair plucking is a condition called trichotillomania – and with effective counselling, mindfulness therapy and hypnotherapy treatment you can take steps now to stop trichotillomania (and the underlying feelings) getting in your hair, so to speak.

Our trained psychotherapists have been working with clients with trichotillomania for years. The most difficult thing about compulsively pulling hair out is that it often takes place without you being aware that you are doing it. While working together we will look for the root cause of the behaviour but also, find what ‘triggers’ your compulsive hair pulling or hair plucking so you can adjust your behaviour accordingly.

No matter how deeply ingrained your trichotillomania, we believe you can stop the habit of pulling hair out if you are willing to work at what’s really getting in your hair.

Call us on (03) 9530 6353 or use our contact form to book your confidential appointment.

In the first counselling session we’ll get a chance to get to talk about why compulsive hair pulling is part of your life. What is important at this stage is to identify what type of treatment will work best. Our treatments range from psychotherapy, counselling, mindfulness and attachment therapy, traditional and Ericksonian hypnotherapy and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP). Our counsellors are fully qualified in the use of all these disciplines. In our experience you’ll start to see improvements after just a few sessions, if you are willing to work at it. As you have read this far, you are probably willing to take the important step of working hard in resolving your issues.

These treatments will aim to put your in control of your compulsive hair pulling. In the end you will feel better about yourself, without the fear that you aren’t in control of your hands.

It’s time to get back in charge.

You have many treatment options:

  • we can have face to face sessions at our Brighton clinic, in Melbourne
  • if travel is an issue, then we can conduct online counselling using Skype
  • you can get started now with a Trichotillomania MP3 download to get you headed in the right direction straight away.

Call us on (03) 9530 6353 or use our contact form to find out if we can help you overcome the temptation to pull hair. Your call is completely confidential, and there's absolutely no obligation.
