Psychological Flexibility: A New Way to Work With Urges. Understanding Urges, Thoughts, and Why Control Backfires

In this webinar, we introduce Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and the idea of psychological flexibility — learning how to respond to hair pulling urges and difficult thoughts without getting pulled into automatic patterns.
We’ll explore how reconnecting with your values can guide meaningful change, why trying to control or eliminate pulling urges often backfires, and how small, intentional actions can support progress without pressure or perfection.
This session offers a compassionate, practical framework for relating differently to hair pulling and to yourself.
