Words from Our Clients

November 2023

The Trishstop program has been an incredible help to our daughter, and to us as parents, as we deal with this difficult condition. As parents, we want the best for our children, and it pains us to see them struggling. Without knowledge of Trichotilliomania and how it works, it was far too easy for us to say the wrong thing, potentially causing shame and exacerbating the condition rather than helping. With Trichstop, we feel better able to support our daughter. She is doing much better, and while she still has relapses from time to time, the relapses are relatively minor and she is much better able to identify them and handle them in a productive way. It's going to be a long journey for all of us, but now we have a roadmap. Thank you, Trichstop

July 2023

I joined the program ever since November 2022 and it has truly been life changing for me. I can genuinely say I am at peace and contented with life after having finished the program as I was able to overcome trichotillomania, something that I have been struggling with for the last 8 years.

Looking back now, joining the program was one of the best decisions I have ever made and I am so thankful for the support and encouragement I have received from my therapist and the TrichStop team. I was very worried at first considering that I hate being vulnerable myself but if there's anyone in the world that can help me and understand what I'm going through, it's TrichStop.

As I'm writing this review, it's nearing the days of my birthday and all I can really say is beating trichotillomania was the best gift I could have ever given to myself and it was all made possible with the support from the TrichStop team.

May 2023

I've had trichotillomania since I was 9 years old. I started Trichstop at 23 after years of feeling absolutely helpless and not being able to find anyone who could give me the help I needed. Trichstop changed my life for the better and I am forever grateful for my therapist and the people who work there. This was the first time I've felt seen and heard. This is not to say that any of it it easy, it's not, it takes hard work and a lot of inner work. But they finally gave me the tools to minimize my pulling and take advantage of my life. Thank you trichstop team for giving me my life back!

February 2023

Gained so much insight into the pulling, and ultimately this challenging learning process gave me the tools and confidence to face it. Highly effective, but you only gain as much as you put in...to gain the most, you have to prioritize it.

January 2023

The experience was quite insightful and beneficial. It increased my capacity for empathy for myself and ultimately allowed me to live more happily. I would most definitely recommend it to anyone else who is interested in looking for help for trichotillomania, and in fact, I have already recommended it to patients.

April 2022

Yes, I would recommend this program. I have never met someone else with trich, but if I ever do, I would tell them about TrichStop with enthusiasm.
How would I summarize the program? Overall, it has been positive and illuminating. I have made a lot of progress toward managing my pulling, and I believe I have the tools I need to continue improving. I could not have done this by myself. For years, I thought I should be able to find a way to stop pulling by myself, but that is impossible. I really needed to learn about these techniques and organize strategies around my particular lifestyle.

January 2022

This program, and most significantly my therapist, really allowed me to explore and analyze the core of who I am and as a result, my pulling. While I had tried many other unsuccessful methods to stop myself from pulling, this program was truly helpful in my understanding of myself and why I pull and I will continue to reference practices learned here. I would definitely recommend to anyone who needs help with this behavior.

November 2021

This program was an incredibly positive experience. The tools and conversation were immensely helpful to address something not many people know about or understand. It often feels like with trich you have to pretend it's not there or that you are ok, and it was nice to talk about it. I would definitely recommend this program to someone else, if anything to know that someone understands and cares about what you are going through.

June 2021

This program has been very beneficial on my path to building happiness. It has made me challenge myself and focus not just on stopping this behaviour, but in realizing that it had stemmed from insecurities and unhappiness as part of the bigger picture. I’m beginning to work on what is really important- building happiness instead of looking for it. Yes I would recommend this program.

May 2021

I struggled with hair-pulling from the time I was a small child. At the time I didn't understand what was happening with me internally and neither did my parents or others around me. The Trichstop program has definitely changed my life. It is one of the best decisions I've made. I learned to become aware of the behavior and the settings and triggers that lead to the behavior. I now have the tools I need to live a life that is not dominated by hair-pulling. I have also learned so much more about myself thanks to the sessions with my therapist. I would 100% recommend the program to anyone who is seeking help with pulling-behavior. If you are dedicated to making the change and facing the things that are difficult to face, this program is going to work!
