Written by clinical psychologists, Dr. Marla Deibler and Dr. Renae Reinardy, this evidence-based, step-by-step guided workbook helps you more effectively manage body-focused repetitive behaviors, including nail biting, hair pulling and skin picking, to live the life you want. So, you want to work on recovery from your body-focused repetitive behavior (BFRB)? Chances are, this is not the first time you've thought about changing your BFRB. And it's probably not the first time you've taken action to overcome it.

Written by licensed clinical psychologists, this integrative behavioral therapy (IBT) approach is rooted in behavioral and cognitive psychology, utilizing CBT, ACT, DBT and habit reversal training, and is applicable to all BFRBs, including nail biting, hair pulling, and skin picking. Make your way through the workbook at your own pace, with the authors' compassionate guidance, and return to it as often as needed.
