Skinpick Reviews

I Can t Recommend This Program Enough

I completed the BFRB therapy program through TrichStop but with a hybrid emphasis since I pick my skin as well and my understanding is that TrichStop and SkinPick are substantially similar In short the program was excellent It was very well structured moving me through stages of becoming more aware of my behaviors recognizing some motivations for why I do them and conversely what they cost me learning different strategies to tackle different kinds of picking pulling automatic vs focused and emphasizing commitment as the ultimate key to long-term management The program contained reinforcement of the different ideas at many stages which really helped integrate the different concepts and helped me develop a holistic strategy for managing my BFRBs The therapist was such a helpful and thoughtful guide through the program as well and the format -- sending messages over an online platform -- was slow reflective non-invasive and non-vulnerable I m not sure I want to do therapy any other way from now on An important note This program isn t a panacea It won t magically cure your BFRBs But then again no program will With this therapy program you get out as much as you put in -- and if you really commit it will be a very valuable experience not just for BFRBs but for general mental health and self-understanding By the end of the program my behaviors hadn t stopped but they had decreased significantly More importantly though I had developed a game plan for continuing to work on my BFRBs going forward and I hope that I ll be able to manage them even better in the coming months and years I highly recommend this program to anyone struggling with this issue -- it s the best help I ve encountered and I hope it will enable others to find the training and support they need

This online program is awesome

This online program is awesome and worth every penny it helped me gain new perspective and decrease my picking behaviour alot For one because you can do it on your own time no pressure so you have time to really focus on it when you can Furthermore the response is quick and the documentation and convesations with therapist will give you the tools you need to dive deep into your innerself and try to understand your behaviour and ultimately learn to control it with newly learned strategies that suit you This course may or may not cure your picking for good but it will give you strategies to apply and form new habits and just like anything in life you need it to become a habit for it to stick so we need to be aware and apply these strategies all the time and utlimately your picking behaviour will decrease significantly My therapist Vedrana is an intelligent kind attentive and honest therapist who was quick to follow up on my online sessions She helped me reflect become more aware of my behaviour and gave me new perspective on the way I saw and handled things She also gave me some great links to videos online documentation webinars so much more information to help me reflect and improve mentally I especially appreciated that she was a good listener and tackled all my topics and issues that ended up helping me with not only my skin picking but in life in general

An experience that will work with me

An experience that will work with me forever Michaela was so helpful and patient with me

Healing skin and a fresh perspective

I am so grateful I decided to try this program I had already read a lot about skin picking and had tried counselling before and yet could not seem to get on top of it This program was a completely different experience The first thing that struck me was that it is a highly structured and specific program Being able to see all the different sessions I would get to work through made me feel confident I would get to the bottom of what is going on that no aspect of my picking would be overlooked I saw a reduction in my picking very early in the program The second aspect is that you are a matched with a personal qualified therapist who guides you through the whole process I expected this person to be something like an instructor who makes sure you are doing the exercises properly but this was not the case for me this is where the real work began Vedrana Mirkovic really took the time to understand my perspective and to help me understand the sessions in the program in the specific context of my own life She helped me dig into issues as deep as I wanted to go When I made some painful realisations she would not just leave me hanging there but would instead help me figure out workable approaches to the situation I was interested in this program to give myself the best possible chance to reduce my picking as much as I could I have definitely achieved this and feel confident that if I keep practicing what I have learnt I will continue to reduce my picking However my experience with Skinpick also fundamentally shifted my outlook on other aspects of my life and helped me make better choices for myself in a way I did not expect it would All in all I would strongly recommend Skinpick to anyone dealing with compulsive skin picking disorder and I am very grateful to Vedrana for her support

highly recommended

Michaela Chatzimanoli my therapist who worked with me to overcome my skinpicking urges by using the program skinpicking has developed has truly made a difference in my life for the better i would definitely recommend this program to others suffering from something like i did

Genuinely helpful and very thoughtfully put together

I was actually quite impressed with this program and I was very doubtful to begin with As everyone with this problem knows it feels LITERALLY impossible to reduce or even stop picking Like the idea of having even an ounce of control is just impossible While this program isn t a magic cure for skin picking it gives you a lot of valuable information in a very structured way It also forces you to actually apply the tools you ve learned and reflect on your experiences So many times I ve googled how to stop skin picking and read about some methods but never held myself accountable to actually try them and never had anyone knowledgable to ask questions to This program gives you accountability and someone to talk to My therapist was absolutely wonderful she answered all my questions and even when I would go off topic she would give me some sage advice I actually screenshotted a bunch of the messages she sent me because I found them so valuable She was also just a lovely presence in my life as I worked through this program and had to process some tough things and own up to my problems Skin picking is the most isolating thing I have ever experienced I feel completely alien to everyone around me While I still feel isolated in some ways having someone to message who understands and is knowledgable and empathetic is a relief beyond words I am still a skin picker at the moment but I see improvements in myself and know that I will continue to improve if I keep using the tools I have learned

Life changing programme

I genuinely couldn t recommend this programme enough I had been picking my skin for quite some time and after a long picking episode I decided I had to do something about it so I started searching on the internet I found this page read the ebook first and resonated with so many things that I decided to give this course a go I can say that that was one of the best decisions I ve ever made This programme helps you get to the roots of your behaviour and understand it so deeply It teaches you so much but doesn t overwhelm you as the sessions the worksheets the explanations and the assessment tests are so well-made and organized The course equips you with both physical and mental techniques to tackle your issue Not only did it change my skin picking behaviour but honestly my lifestyle and approach to life as well My supportive kind understanding therapist contributed to my success immensely which I m very grateful for She always replied quickly and challenged me in the best possible way Before doing this programme I was pretty sceptical about therapy in general and used to think that it wasn t for me but the course completely changed my opinion about that Overall this programme has exceeded all of my expectations and I highly recommend completing it if you have a skin picking issue Thank you

Suffer no more - do the programme

A very helpful programme that equipped me with the background knowledge coping strategies and insight to help me to understand and finally deal with my problem Highly recommended

Self-paced one on one therapy go for it

I hesitated to pursue therapy for quite some time knowing that I needed it but unsure which issue to address When I found Skinpick I was intrigued because it addressed one of my core issues that I don t think I would have had the courage to address in another therapy setting I am very satisfied with my experience in this program and highly recommend it to anyone with a body focused repetitive behavior issue The structure and self paced nature of the program plus the one on one communication with the therapist provide an excellent framework for making positive change in your life at a pace that you are comfortable with Go for it
