Technology Assisted Treatment of Trichotillomania: Open Trial

​

 

The Pediatric Anxiety and Related Disorders Center (PARC) at Kent State University is working with colleagues at HabitAware, Inc. to refine a wearable device designed to increase the mobility of evidence-based treatment practices to adults who pull their hair.

 

We are seeking 10 adults with chronic hair pulling (i.e., trichotillomania) to help us test an intervention we have developed to make core facets of evidence-based treatment for trichotillomania portable and available to more adults afflicted with this condition.

 

Potential participants must be 18 years of age or older, speak fluent English, and have easy access to an iPhone.

 

If you are interested in hearing more about this study, please contact the PARC at 330-672-2220 or email us at anxiety@kent.edu.

 

Not all those interested will be eligible.
