Therapy for skin-picking

Online therapy for skinpicking

Compulsive Skin Picking (CSP) is a psychosomatic illness. The persons pick or scratch their skin, lips, nails, scalp etc. They cannot stop themselves while picking.

The decision to undertake counseling for skin picking

One can view online therapy as an interesting useful item in a showcase of a particular shop.

Viewers respond to this “item on display” in 3 ways:

1) Look at it, find it useful but postpone the idea of buying it. One day, they may decide to ask for more information about it. May settle for its short run.

The Handshake

When I am informed by the website administrator about a new client purchasing a particular counseling package, I immediately send that
client a welcome note.

If I am too busy with clients at hand, we put up an alert about not being available till a specific time period. During that period, if I get an information about a client, I request him/her to wait till I am relatively free to work with him/her. Almost always clients comply and cooperate.

Our Journey

Our journey begins as first session. Based on the initial
information I receive from my clients, I send my reflections and my questions at the outset of our therapeutic work.

In online therapy, I do not prescribe medicines, or advise any stress relief exercises.

Pile of conflicts

During exploration, me and my client try to gather all possible significant memories of their past, nightmares, recurring dreams, associated feelings and aspirations.

I have found that my clients tend to pick when they are alone, bored, lost, frustrated, nervous, feeling stuck, are panicked. They tend to pick when they are done with their day's work and are preparing themselves to sleep. Some of them pick their private parts during night in deep sleep, when they are not aware of themselves.

One common theme

Each client of mine has a unique story to tell. I present fresh clean slate of my mind for each one of them. I receive them and their mails as they are. I prepare report of each individual. I arrange, rearrange, read and reread compiled notes (which I prepare over the period of time) of each individual. I can see data of more than 15-20 pages sometimes up to 35-40 pages depending upon the size of unfinished businesses.

Changing one's hard core perspective

When I feel it’s the right time, I disclose and explain at length, about the underlying unconsciously created, self-defeating theme to my clients. Almost all of them completely and readily and simply agree with that and feel a kind of relief. Now, they can link their pain and agony and confusion in a simple equation. They start looking at the mess with somewhat clear vision. They feel optimistic enough to work on their conflicts and move on with life, in real time.

Termination

You as a client are my guest and I am your host for this website. We invite you for online therapy, at a cost much less than face to face therapy. Online therapy provides us convenience and comfort of working from home/office at our pace. It keeps secrecy and privacy of your identity.
