Description

The BFRB Podcast is hosted by Jose Alvear, LCSW and advocate Ashley Robles who explore body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) like skin picking and trichotillomania (hair pulling disorder) through compelling personal narratives and discussion with mental health professionals. Join us as we share resources, coping strategies, and expert advice to help with these behaviors. Our hope is to provide a platform for education, support, and advocacy for those impacted by BFRBs. Remember you are not alone; there are supportive communities and professionals to help in your healing journey.
