Clinicians and researchers have searched for a solution to chronic hairpulling. While traditional behavioral interventions such as habit reversal therapy have been shown to be effective, relapse rates are high and many clients do not respond adequately to this treatment. Here's where ACT-enhanced behavior therapy (A-EBT) comes in. Developed by Twohig and colleagues, A-EBT takes a fresh approach to trichotillomania, teaching readers how to detach their behavior from their thoughts and feelings. If you, like us, have been searching for a solution, Less Pulling, More Living is a great place to start. I look forward to recommending it to my clients with trich.
