As Seen In…
If you want to stop, but don’t know how…
you’re in the right place!
Because I get it.
I’ve been there, done that.
I listened to the leading experts’ advice, even got certified to treat others with BFRBs, and I was still was still pulling out my own hair.
I desperately wanted to stop, but I kept ending up in the same old patterns.
I expected the embarrassment and shame would be enough to motivate me to change, but it never was.
After over 25 years of searching for an answer that would actually help me make lasting changes, I finally learned the missing pieces that made it all come together with ease.
And now I want to give you the guidance I so desperately needed years ago.
And the most incredible part?
The strategies I learned aren’t limited to just BFRBs! The tools I teach will help you quit any unwanted behavior – because they address the underlying imbalance or dysregulation lurking underneath the behavior!
So if you’re hurt, frustrated, and embarrassed about your BFRB or other unwanted behavior, and your past efforts to quit have fallen short…
you're in the right place.
Whether it's:
hair pulling
skin picking
nail biting
stress eating
compulsive scrolling
impulse pending
procrastination
disorganization
self-criticism
or any other unwanted behavior -
I can give you the keys to break out of this self-defeating cycle.

It’s not your fault!
Because guess what?
All that shame that you’ve been carrying around is based on a misunderstanding that you’re choosing to keep coming back to this behavior.
But what you’re actually choosing is to regulate yourself, which we all need to do somehow.
I help people learn about their needs and find different regulation strategies that they actually feel good about – which means no willpower is required.
And all this is done with self-compassion – rather than shame, which is what most people are using to motivate themselves.
You see, the solutions you've tried in the past didn't work for long because they didn’t get to the core issue behind the behavior, which is dysregulation.
If you try to quit without managing the dysregulation, you’re just removing a regulation tool without addressing the need behind it, and this approach is doomed to fail in the long run.
The key to quitting BFRBs or other unwanted habits is understanding that the behavior serves a purpose for you… and being compassionate with yourself throughout the process.
In my 12-week Hack Your Habit coaching program, I'll share with you my signature process to help you learn more about your behavior, what's getting in the way of change, and how to master the hard parts of quitting.
By the end of the program, you’ll have a personalized and detailed guide to stopping for good and confidence in yourself to keep going!
Ready to get started?
Schedule your Breakthrough Strategy Session, a free 45-minute call to find out how I can help you quit your BFRB or other stubborn habit.
“But I’ve already tried it all…”
If you've tried therapy, coaching, self-help books, or suggestions from well-meaning friends and family and none if it has "worked," rest assured
this will be different.
(And I know this because you’re still here looking for a solution!)
Those strategies are helpful, but are just a band-aid - which means you end up battling urges rather than addressing the reason the urges are there in the first place.
My coaching program will help you add the missing pieces – awareness, respect, and compassion for yourself – so you can put down this struggle and start living our life.
If you’re ready to get to the bottom of the urges and learn regulation strategies for lasting change, schedule a Breakthrough Strategy Session today.
