Hypnotherapy for Hair Pulling (Trichotillomania)
Take Back Control — Calmly, Gently, and Permanently
Hair pulling, or trichotillomania, is a condition that often feels distressing, confusing, and incredibly difficult to stop — especially when it’s been a habit for years.
You might pull without realising, especially during times of stress, boredom, or deep concentration. You may feel shame or embarrassment, and yet powerless to stop.
But please know this:
You are not broken — and you are not alone.
There is a way to break free from the cycle, gently and safely.
Understanding Hair Pulling as a Subconscious Habit
Trichotillomania is not just a “bad habit” — it’s a subconscious coping mechanism that often begins as a way to manage emotions, anxiety, or sensory needs. Over time, it becomes automatic, reinforced by momentary relief — even when it’s causing distress.
Willpower alone often isn’t enough, because the behaviour is happening below the surface of conscious awareness.
That’s why hypnotherapy is so effective — it helps you reach the subconscious mind and rewire the response.
How Hypnotherapy Can Help
Using a powerful blend of clinical hypnotherapy, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), and Time Line Therapy, I help clients gently let go of the urge to pull — and replace it with calm, control, and confidence.
We’ll work together to:
- Identify the emotional and sensory triggers behind the pulling
- Break the automatic pattern at the subconscious level
- Rewire your response to stress, boredom, or overwhelm
- Reduce the urge and increase self-awareness
- Build confidence, self-soothing skills, and emotional resilience
- Heal from guilt, shame, or embarrassment around the habit
This is a safe, non-judgemental space where change is not forced — it’s supported.
The Success Without Stress Method
My approach is bespoke and trauma-sensitive.
I tailor every session to you — your history, your triggers, your goals.
We may use:
- Guided hypnosis to reframe patterns and shift emotional responses
- NLP tools to interrupt the urge and install healthier behaviours
- Time Line Therapy to clear any unresolved emotions from the past
- Tools and strategies to help you feel calm and in control between sessions
