How OICBT Helps With Skin Picking
Skin Picking Disorder (Excoriation Disorder) involves recurrent urges to pick at the skin despite attempts to stop, often resulting in physical damage, distress, shame or impairment in daily functioning. OICBT provides evidence-based support for skin picking through care that is matched to your needs, goals and preferences. The clinic uses a personalized intake process to recommend a strong service fit, and OICBT clinician profiles identify skin picking, body-focused repetitive behaviours and OCD-related concerns as relevant areas of focus. Depending on fit, care may include individual therapy with habit reversal, ERP or related CBT-based supports when appropriate.
- Care is collaborative, client-centred and guided by research-informed recommendations.
- Treatment may draw on CBT, ERP, ACT, DBT, Schema Therapy and mindfulness-based approaches.
- Goals may include symptom relief, practical skills, resilience, relationships, daily functioning and values-based action.
