  • About Us

    The TLC Foundation for Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors takes a comprehensive approach to helping people overcome and heal from body-focused repetitive behaviors.

    We confront this challenge in four significant ways:

    1. We connect affected individuals and their families with each other, thereby helping to end their isolation and providing a community of support.
    2. We refer people to appropriate treatment providers, services, and educational resources so that they can take better control of their recovery.
    3. We conduct outreach to healthcare providers and educators, teaching them how to recognize these disorders and, train qualified mental health professionals in the latest evidence-based cognitive behavioral treatment approaches.
    4. We design and fund research projects aimed at understanding the neurobiology of these disorders and identifying pharmacological and behavioral treatments, as well as possibilities for prevention.
