Trichotillomania 2: Compulsive Hair Pulling Hypnosis Script

Many people with this condition do not even realise that they are hair-pulling until somebody points it out to them, or until they begin to notice bald patches or hair in their hands.

This habit is an impulse control disorder that can be caused by anxiety and stress or coexist with an anxiety disorder, so you may need to help your clients to deal with the cause of their anxiety before using this script. However, the script focuses on strategies to help your client rather than pinpoint the cause.

This Trichotillomania 2 hypnosis script uses mild aversion to help deter the client from their habit. Our other trichotillomania script uses Parts Therapy, which can help your client to get in touch with the part of them that controls their habit. The scripts could be combined but work better as different sessions.

This script also includes positive suggestions, hypnotic amnesia (for the habit) and future pacing.
