Overcome Trichotillomania (Obsessive Hair Pulling) with Expert Guidance

Take Control of Your Hair Pulling

Discover your “hair pulling” score in less than 5 minutes and learn the best next steps for you on your journey.

I’m a qualified therapist, counsellor and clinical hypnotherapist, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
For more than ten years, I’ve been helping people overcome anxiety, unwanted habits, and intrusive thoughts — using a blend of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Hypnotherapy, and Habit Reversal techniques.

Over the years, I’ve supported hundreds of clients to regain control of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. My approach is straightforward, evidence-based, and down-to-earth — no jargon, no judgement.

I believe that change happens when we understand what drives our habits and learn practical ways to respond differently.

That’s exactly what this Trichotillomania / hair pulling programme is designed to do — helping you develop awareness, reduce urges, and rebuild confidence in a calm, structured way.

Helping you feel in control again — one small step at a time.

Your Questions Answered

What is the Trichotillomania Score App Quiz?

The quiz is a self-assessment tool that helps you understand the current level of your hair-pulling symptoms. It looks at things like urges, frequency, emotional triggers, and how much it affects your day-to-day life. Once completed, you’ll receive your score and a simple therapeutic exercise you can begin using straight away.

How does the quiz work?

The quiz asks a series of short, easy-to-answer questions based on recognised clinical measures used in therapy. Your answers are scored and placed into a symptom range (mild, moderate, or significant). You’ll then be guided on what your score means and given a practical technique to try.

Is this quiz a diagnosis?

No. This quiz is not a formal diagnostic tool. It is designed to help you understand your experience more clearly and to give you the first step in managing symptoms. If you are unsure, or need personalised support, seeking a qualified therapist is recommended.

What will I gain from taking this quiz?

You’ll gain clarity around the level of your symptoms, insight into your hair-pulling patterns, and a simple strategy you can start using straight away. You’ll also have the option to learn more about the upcoming online programme that goes deeper into long-term support and change.

Will this work for me?

Most people find the quiz helpful because it provides awareness and a clear starting point. The technique included is widely used in therapy. Everyone is different, but the exercise is gentle, safe, and suitable for anyone managing urges and compulsive behaviours.

Do I need any previous therapy experience to use this?

No. The quiz and the technique provided are written in a clear, easy-to-follow way. You don’t need background knowledge or previous therapy experience to benefit from it.
