Narrative of Services:
I have been a BFRB specialist since 2011. BFRB has remained at least 90% of my full time practice ever since. I also do a lot of neurodiversity and trauma work and especially enjoy working with clients juggling 2 or 3 of these struggles at once.
*BFRB is Body Focused Repetitive Behavior such as Trichotillomania and Excoriation/Skin Picking Disorder.
*BFRB is Body Focused Repetitive Behavior such as Trichotillomania and Excoriation/Skin Picking Disorder.
Training Description:
I completed several BFRB trainings and certifications, including through TLC Foundation for BFRB and BFRB Changemakers over the 15 years I’ve specialized in supporting this population. I have been through my own BFRB journey, so I have a deep understanding and critical thinking regarding protocols and research. I work hard to integrate several different approaches including the evidence based methods to address the quality of life of the whole human in the context of their real life. I supplement neuro-affirming CBT and HRT with trauma informed approaches like EMDR and Somatic experiencing.
Diversity Statement:
My practice is primarily female, but I do work with male and gender non-conforming adults also. My practice and BFRB therapy groups usually have about half representation of BIPOC. I work hard to be respectful and informed of cultural and privilege dynamics. I have a dual major of gender studies and include BIPOC authors and trainers in at least half of my CEU readings and trainings.
