self-help technique decoupling - feedback
Hello,
I am new to this forum. My name is Steffen, I am a professor of psychology from Germany. I have developed a self-help technique called decoupling (for research article see bottom), which we offer at no cost via our website: https://clinical-neuropsychology.de/manual_reducing_trichotillomania/
This technique has worked quite well in nail biting and trich but not skin picking.
I would be grateful to know if some of you have tried the technique and for your experiences. Suggestions for improvement are very welcome. Hope it has work for some of you
Yours,
Steffen (email: moritz@uke.de)
