Abstract

|
|
|
Trichotillomania is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by repetitive pulling out of one’s hair. We present a trichotillomania case study illustrating the effectiveness of habit reversal training, which has recently been found, in western countries, to be a very effective cognitive behavioral treatment. The refractory patient in our study had previously received 1 year of drug treatment and psychiatric consultation for the disorder. We administered 10 habit reversal training sessions, which was followed by an obvious improvement in the patient’s trichotillomania
